Trudi, shared the following words with me… “Think of Me was inspired by my daughter's friend Mandi... Mandi had 2 previous abortions and this was my plea to her to have her baby... I wrote this for her second one hoping it would touch her heart but it was only words and sadly it didn't... Ray took those words and gave them a voice... Mandi listened and it hit home... the result of this song is a beautiful baby girl named Hailey-Mae”
Trudi went on to state… “If I never have a sweeter moment in my life this is it! Just knowing something I wrote touched a heart enough to bring a baby into this world makes everything else worthwhile...”
I would have to agree this is my finest achievement as a songwriter as well. Talk about changing hearts one life at a time!
Hailey-Mae’s mom proudly proclaimed these loving words… "Hello everyone!! I bring good news of a healthy little brunette girl with blue eyes and an amazing smile. Hailey-Mae came in by c-section on Valentines Day at 5:32am weighing in at 7lbs 15oz and 20 inches long. I know some of you have seen her already, but for those who haven't, you don’t know what your missin!!! She's amazing, both myself and her dad are very proud."

Meet Hailey-Mae a precious blessing from heaven.
Some other interesting Changing Hearts Project facts…
- Shortly after completing the song “Think Of Me” Trudi’s daughter became pregnant. The interesting thing is the doctors told her she may never be able to bear children and would have problems getting pregnant.
- When I asked Beth Stalker to sing “Think Of Me”, I found out she would have someone else sitting in on the vocal session…she was expecting her first child…WOW! What timing, I had no idea she was pregnant when I asked her to sing "Think Of Me".
- Did you notice Hailey-Mae was born on Valentine’s Day a day associated with love.
- A call from Carolyn Taylor White (CTW Enterprises), which led to the expansion of the Changing Hearts Project to include Carolan Deacon's wonderful rendition of "On This Road".
Many Blessings,
