Songs of the Heart

One of Savannah's favorite bedtime songs that I sing to her is I am a Child of God. She is always willing to lye down for me at bedtime just so I can sing to her. She loves listening to me sing. To my surprise tonight she started singing along with me and she didn't even really know all the words. Apparently she has been paying attention to the words of the song. She did her very best to keep up with me. It was a very special moment that melted my heart. I loved every minute of it! I hope she grows up loving to sing just like her mommy and daddy. A couple of weeks ago Frank made a comment during church that he loved the Christmas song that we were singing in sacrament. Savannah quickly replied that she also loved the same song. Funny - especially since she hasn't heard the song since she was a baby. We started to sing the hymn when Savannah grabbed the Spanish hymnal and was holding it upside down and singing as loud as she could and wasn't making any sense of course - just a bunch of babble. I swear she was the loudest one singing amongst the whole congregration. She sang along to the entire song all four verses. I couldn't help but get a little choked up myself while I singing. What a very sweet and memorable moment!!!
