After an acutely exhausting pregnancy with my second child, my baby girl did not like to sleep. In retrospect I can see now that her innate power was too big for her little body. She started sleeping soundly and deeply once she turned two. Singing was the only thing that calmed us in the wee hours and my voice opened for the first time.
In 2010, when my son was five years old, I was adamant that he take music lessons. After a few lessons he said, "Mom, I don't want music, you want music!"
In taking pause after an award-winning public radio career of turning the microphone on mothers nationwide to capture their experiences of pregnancy, birth, and motherhood, I was compelled to turn the microphone on my own story. After writing 10 original songs, and a Kickstarter campaign, in 2014, my debut album, Delve, was born.
