Charlie started singing a couple months ago. That is to say, when I sang to him at bedtime, he started chiming in with held-out droning sounds. At first we kept asking, "is he singing?" And then there was the night I was singing "Jesus loves me" and I got to the chorus and he started singing "Ssssssssaaaaaaa, saaaaaaaa" in imitation of the S-sounds in "yes, Jesus loves me." So there we were, in the dark, singing our hearts out and praising God together, and I almost cried. That off-key noise was about the cutest, heart melting thing I have ever heard. (No bias here, of course!) Since then, he has started singing along with his favorite songs on CD, and even switches to humming if I do!
I tried to get a little of his singing on video. Its not the same as snuggling his sleepy self and hearing his little voice droning away in your ear, but it is the next best thing! Hope you enjoy!

How adorable! Peter hates when I sing. Always has. But Moira likes it and she also "sings" along with her lullabies. It's wonderful.
Sometime, Keren, ask Grandma Ruth to tell you about your early piano lessons with her. I believe Charlie is a lot like you... :) He IS certainly precious!
There is potential in Charlie!
Susanna's clapping for Charlie!
I knew he had some musical talent in him! He sounds wonderful already, maybe a potential composer! Sounds like everything is going great! Happy Summer!!
