How did your mom get her start in songwriting?

Congrats to you.

God's blessings on your family.

Well, thank you very much, Joni.

I appreciate that.

Lisa's always been creative.

She's always been a writer.

She wrote things when she was young and in high school, wrote a really cool poem that was published about her grandmother.

And then when our kids were little, she would take regular songs and write mom parody songs about them.

And some of those are just hilarious.

And we had to figure out maybe how to get a link to some of those because they are super, super funny.

And then as Allie left high school and went to college, and so we were somewhat empty nesters because Daniel was off at a program at that time, she began to get more serious about songwriting.

And so she began to write more serious songs.

primarily in the Christian world.

Also, though, some in the country.

She's got some really good, funny and good country songs.

In fact, my favorite song that she has, and you can probably look this up somewhere, called Homecoming Dance.

It's my favorite song of all time that she did.

So if you like the song that Stephen Curtis Chapman did called Butterfly Kisses, it's kind of along that line.

Did he sing that one?
