Singing Surprise

Here and there
they run
never a moment still
everything in me to will them to sit and to stay
but there is NO WAY

When- in comes Boss and what comes across?
A loud voice to limit and control
nope
a quiet voice with a song and a lull
asking, "are we ready, are we ready,
yes we are, yes we are,"
 and like magic

tiny hands join together
and sit
what a wonderful wish come true
and if only I knew

the wonders singing can do
to calm the tiger of a three year olds heart. 

[Learning that God talks to our heart in the same way- not sternly but with love, patience, and a song.]
