The song talks about how little girls make Dad\u2019s happy, and I think this is captured in the photo to the left of me holding Melanie. I also think happiness and joy is captured in the extended photo of my Dad (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.psalmscountdown.net\/?p=1755\">Howard Nelson, Song 011<\/a>) picking Melanie up. In the posting of Dad&#8217;s song,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.walden3d.com\/PrimeWords\/painting_prints\/IV_Mankind.png\">Ken Tuner\u2019s painting of Dad<\/a> is to the left, and the extended photo shows the painting hanging at Melanie\u2019s house. The word \u201chigh\u201d was used because I grew up singing John Denver\u2019s \u201cRocky Mountain High\u201d and \u201chigh\u201d rhymes with \u201csigh.\u201d The first verse chides Melanie about her posture, and encourages her to decide early where her priorities are. Melanie\u2019s priorities are perfect. She grew fast. She managed the divorce better than most of the kids. She is still cute, though in a very mature and dignified way. She has always been a people person, and she is very good helping others. Melanie did not always set the best example for Sara. When I wrote this song, she was only 3 years old, Sara was a new baby, and her example was perfect. I\u2019ve come to realize there are times when we all set poorer examples. She sure sets a good example now. Melanie is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/melanie.n.wright.1\">mother of 5, a \u201cMeant To Shine Entrepreneur and business Coach\u201d for Rodan+Fields<\/a> skin care products, and wife to Jared, a wonderful dentist starting a new Texas dental practice. As Melanie once explained, \u201cDad likes Jared, but he love\u2019s Jared\u2019s family.\u201d The Wrights, from Vidor, Texas, are just like the honest hardworking folks I grew up with in Cedar Valley.<\/p>\n<p>A goal is for this site to be interactive, for others to record their versions of the Psalms, or provide images or videos which explain a Psalm better.
