Many thanks to J. Aaron Brown, Producer, and Katherine Dines, artist, for the song, “Wings,” from A Child’s Gift of Lullabyes (www.lullabyes.com). Because of this song (from which I took my company name), I am able to do what I do today—give “wings” to educators and parents of children with special needs and autism spectrum disorders. And, of course, I have found the “rainbow’s end” in my sons Kirk, Drew, and Guy.

See the lyrics of this lovely song, below, and take a couple of minutes to watch the video, where you’ll see images of my family.

“Wings”

If I could I would give you wings To lift you way up in the air And you could find the rainbow’s end ‘Cause wings would get you there.

If I could I would give you wings To carry you out of the storm They’d take you higher than the wind And you’d be safe and warm.

Wings Little wings Wings in the wink of an eye Soon your little wings will be Big enough to fly.

If I could I would give you wings To lighten your heart through the years They’d flutter soft around you then And dry up all your tears.
