Hey Mom!

Happy Mother's day!

I thought I would give you a special gift that you can hold on to for life.
Something that was worth more than flowers, and doesn't wilt with time.

Here is a song I wrote and recorded just for YOU! Just hit download and it should go straight to iTunes.

Enjoy!

With love,

Your son,

Gairgoo

He put birds chirping in the background, knowing I love birds. and at the end of the song you if you listen ever so closely, you can hear him say “I love you mom”. (Something I’d just discovered a couple years ago....)

Justin found Garrett’s handwritten lyrics in a notebook awhile back and framed them for me last year as a Mother’s Day gift.
There are no words to describe the gift of this song, the lovingly framed handwriting... my mother’s heart.
My Love for my sons.

lyrics

MOTHERS'S DAY GIFT

The sun comes up
With you in the morning
You start your day
Always the first to pray

How you've raised me
In the Truth
How you've loved me
Through and through

I'm so glad that I have a mother like you
Years go by and still this saying is true

The sun goes down with you in the night
You end your day
Always the first to pray
How you've raised me in the truth
How you've loved me
Through and through

CHORUS

"I love you Mom"
