Hey so I'm trying to make my mother a slide show of my kids for her birthday.. I made one several years back of old pictures i found of her and my dad for their anniv. and she's been on my case since..
for my little girl (5) i am using - big girls don't cry, you are my sunshine, and going to figure one more out..
My son I am not coming up with any ideas.. he will be 4 on christmas, he was born premmie and wasn't supposed to make it, when they finally discharged him, he wasn't supposed to live long and i was told would pass away at home, he is now fixing to be 4 and perfectly healthy... I like to pull a heart strings with slide shows.. so does anyone have any ideas for songs to help me with this?

Pull heart strings... Then I would highly recommend What a Wonderful World, the Louis Armstrong version.

Fill it with slides of your son's progress, and end it with a current picture of his smiling face, and I guarantee not a dry eye in the place.

I suspect you will not get the rights for some of that music - I mean that would be like using a picture without permission right? :-) There are a few royalty free music sites for not too much $.
