Brogan Sings

Brogan is such a sweet boy.  He loves, loves, LOVES to sing.  He sings ALL the time.  Usually it's contemporary Christian songs and church songs that he listens to our choir sing at night with daddy.  It's their ritual.  They listen to multiple songs on Youtube before he goes to bed.  Addi listens too...just usually she's dancing. ;)  Recently he has started acting more like a praise and worship leader.  Before he sings, he'll say, "We're going to sing...."  and he'll also tell people after the song to "Clap your hands, everybody."  He will say, "We love you, Lord!"  and "Hallelujah!"  Cutest.thing.ever.  At times, I can't help but wonder if he realizes Who he is singing to.  Based on the way he acts, I think he can...in his own special way.  Do I think he's saved?  Of course not...he's two.  True story:  He walks around singing so much that sometimes I wonder if he's OK and wish that he will play with toys.  Other times, I get worried if my little guy isn't singing.  Truth is, I wouldn't trade the crazy, loud (VERY loud) singing going on in our house for anything.  It fits us and the amazing chaos that is our lives and we never have to turn on the radio. ;)  My prayer is that one day he will come to know Christ on a personal level.  When he does, I pray that he is still singing, because if he has this much passion now, how much more will he have when he starts to comprehend the greatness of God?

Brogan - Keep singing, my sweet boy.  Mommy will always cheer you on!

Oh, and Brogan's absolutely favorite songs to sing right now include these songs from our church choir and he knows every single word to every song (as well as a few others).  I especially think it's cute that our two year old sings, "I was cold and lonely.  I had no peace in my soul.  Had no one to turn to, had no place to go.  I was ashamed of the way I was living.  I couldn't find my way out.  Then Jesus came, praise His name, He taught me what life was all about."  Just super cute that he would sing about how he was "ashamed of the way he was living."  So many regrets in his two short years. ;)  Oh, and it ALWAYS blesses my heart to hear him sing "Come thou fount."  That is probably one of my favorite songs of all times. :)

*As I finished typing this, he started kicking and hitting his sister for no reason. So, no, I don't think he's a saint.  :)

So so sweet! And I didn't know Come Thou Fount" is one of your favorites; it's one of mine as well - it was even part of our wedding :) Keep up the singing, Brogan!
