New Project / Free Download: "Everything" + Lullabies

In 2012, upon hearing that my friend's sister and her husband suffered a miscarriage, words began pouring into my mind and within an hour, "Everything" was written. A year later, they asked if they could share the song with other families who have lost a child. I re-recorded "Everything" along with two other lullabies I had previously arranged, and am now releasing that as a free download. Please feel free to share it, as that is it's purpose-- to hopefully bring comfort to families who are grieving.

I, Allison Barnes, arranged and recorded "All the Pretty Little Horses" and "Hush Little Baby." I also wrote an additional ending to "Hush Little Baby."

"Everything" was written and sung by me, Allison Barnes, with guitar by David Rose.

Dear Mom,

If you are reading this, stop! Close your eyes! Ignore this post!

Dear Readers,

If you are anything like me, you've thought a lot about Mother's Day, but haven't decided on a particular gift for your mother yet. Well, you are in luck! (As am I!)

The Lovely Michelle of Loving Life Designs has designed a beautiful Mother's Day card for the We Are Women blog. I love it. It is simple, feminine, and the perfect size, 4"x6". You can print it into a folded card or, as Michelle suggests, print is as a flat card.

Thank you so much, Michelle! Readers, we hope you enjoy this free download and put it to good use! And Mothers, we hope you have a wonderful weekend! You deserve it!
