Two Voices

I sang Jacob to bed tonight as I always do.  We have a list of around ten songs that we rotate through.  Some nights I get in a rut and simply sing the songs in the same order.  Tonight was different though, each song was sung with meaning.  I sang with all of my heart and hoped that Jacob understood how much I adore and love him.  I knew he did as he put his little hand in mine.  I couldn't help but think one night, he is going to join in with me as we sing those bedtime songs.  One night, we will sing with two voices in harmony, praising God for the blessings in our life.  Tears came to my eyes with that thought. Tears of joy, tears of sorrow.  I am sad that a phase has ended (books tell me I know longer have a baby, rather a toddler), but excited about what is to come.
