I co-wrote this song with my fourteen year old adopted daughter from her perspective, reflecting my "Choices" philosophy.

| Celebrating Hannah-Elizabeth's 15th Birthday |
People said you took a chance
They said I had no voice
When you took me in your arms
But we both make a choice
You chose me as your daughter
And I chose both of you
Though I was just a baby
God chose to let me choose
My life, my life—It’s my life
The choices that I make
No one could ever make me
Do anything I do
I am in control of me
And I learned that from you
I choose all my attitudes
What I listen to and see
They all become my pictures
They become a part of me
My life, my life—It’s my life
That I share with you
Some kids I know chase feelings
But I choose purity
Not because I’m perfect
But that is what I need
I seek to make my choices
By what is best for me
What is best for those I love
‘Cause in God’s love I’m free
