"Every once in awhile something I've experienced will cause a musical idea or melody to start playing in my mind. And a few times it has been a melody that I've never heard before. This was distinctly the case with this song. It's melody came to me as I was thinking about a cool little guy named Christopher. Christopher is 18 months old and he is one of thousands of babies waiting for an organ donation. He was born with half a heart and he's been through a lot in his life. But this song is one of cheerfulness and determination, despite challenges. The melody that came into my mind is simple and childlike. I know it was meant for Christopher. I view the song as an amazing gift to him, to his parents, to me, and to anyone who is touched by it."
