I've said it before- Ireson loves to sing. Ireson loves to belt out the hymns during the church service. Today was no exception. I often read him the line first and then he sings along with bells and whistles and it's not uncommon for people from the other side of the church look over or turn around and start to laugh and smile. It's inspiring to see such enthusiasm and joy in the worship of a child. A lesson for us all!
Today, Ireson was getting "carried away" shall we say and was practically yelling the words. I told him to sing "nicely". He happily obliged for a couple of minutes and then began to work his way back up to a yell. I had to remind him that we're "singing to God, not yelling at Him." Well, I apparently don't sing loud enough because Ireson looked at me as though I've been misinformed and told me, "Mom, I have to yell so God can hear me up in heaven."
I should have known better.
