This is a song I wrote around 2015 after we moved to Florida to be near my 91 year old mother.
I recently decided to do a video for it, for a DVD I'm putting together of all of my music videos(17)
There is so much negative news lately, I thought it would be nice to post something upbeat and fun, take a deep breath and have some fun. I wrote this after I surprised my then 91 year old mother by showing up at her apartment on one of my wellness visits with a mop, bucket, pine sol, vacuum,etc. She was a proud, independent woman who did not like people doing things for her. I had noticed over time her apartment needed a good cleaning, but she loudly refused when my wife and I mentioned it, or tried to straighten things up when we visited. My wife was working then, so I had to do it solo. Mom saw my determination and gently gave in by saying, "well, ok". After a couple of hours I headed home, and the feeling of accomplishment and happiness was so great, I felt like I was soaring like an eagle.
This song is dedicated to anyone who has overcome obstacles, anyone who has achieved a goal, and all of you, because, I love you. ❤ Hope this brings a little lightness to your day. Did You Do It by Richard Hermans
