One of the sweetest things about traveling and working together has been the songs that we sing.  They make the miles and the time go by so much faster, remind us of truths and make us laugh.   We all have so many fond memories of driving late at night and hearing Dad singing to keep himself awake, or Mom and Dad harmonizing together; of Mom singing us to sleep; of contests where we all pick a song and on the count of 3 sing out as loud as we could and try not to  get drowned out or confused by the others…..  Songs have played a key part in making us who we are.  --Heidi Corbin
