It’s Friday night, I’m sitting in vespers with kids cuddled in my lap and snuggled all around me. The song service starts and they sing some of their favorites. As they continue to sing their energy grows. I love to listen to them sing. Their powerful voices carry the melody so loudly and in keys that are way higher than what their voice ranges are. This makes it difficult to sing along, but it makes a smile grow on my face. The kids sing with their mouths open as wide as they can possibly get them and their faces have a look of sincerity and intensity. One of the boys sometimes crosses his eyes and tilts his head back and forth, singing with gusto. It’s the cutest thing. When the electricity shut off and the room went completely dark, the voices sounded even louder! They truly sing their hearts out, and my heart is overflowing.

Happy Sabbath!
amen!
