I don't do these as often as I'd like. Then again, I don't post on here as often as I'd like. E often gives me reasons to smile. Tonight, while I was putting him to bed, I was singing to him. He's so stubborn about bed time that I often have to sing lullaby-like song I know to him. Tonight I was singing Toby Keith's "Heart to Heart (Stellan's Song)." The chorus is as follows:
When he cries she'll match him, tear for tear.
When he laughs, she'll grin from ear to ear.
When he's wrong they'll stand there face to face,
She can put him in his place.
Side by side, hand in hand
She'll talk up daddy's little man.
He knows that she's done her part
Watching God's love grow heart to heart
Na na na na na na na-a
Na na-a na na na na na na na na na-
Tonight, just as I reached the end of the chorus, before starting the "na nas", E suddenly starts saying "na na na na na na!" I was so proud! Especially since he's so stubborn about using his words, and here he was singing with me! I thought "wow! Look how well my little boy knows this song!" He "sang" that part along on the next chorus too. Love my little guy!
It truly does amaze me how quickly they learn & how much they understand at this age. =)
