I volunteered my little family to do an item for Mother’s Day this coming Sunday. (What was I thinking?) I whipped up a simple arrangement of ‘Dearest Mother, I Love You’ found in the Children’s Songbook. It’s simple, but you don’t want a complicated accompaniment or descant or you’ll have a very confused child singing.
Here’s my arrangement: Dearest Mother I Love You
The violin part is also suitable for a flute.

I’m writing to you from Las Vegas, Nevada:
Thank you for all the great ideas! It’s nice to connect with you, all the way across the globe.
Do you by chance want to write a simple violin arrangement for “Baptism,” on page 100 of The Children’s Hymn Book?
My 13 yr old plays violin, between 1-2 yrs now, but we have a baptism in about 5 weeks (his brother’s), and we’d like to have him play the violin along with some singing.
(The baptism is Oct. 13th, so I would need to know quickly if you are ready to jump in and write music for a complete stranger!) ; )
