The trouble with only singing program songs…..is that you don’t know any songs.
Today I was going through my files looking through old things and organizing visual aids. I didn’t realize how much I had, but after 4 years it kind of makes sense. I found a list of songs from 2008 when I was first put in. There were…

Stars Were Gleaming

A Primary Theme Song
