Age two is hitting hard

Well, the kids' praise music CDs are still favorites. Now Eleanor is starting to join in - not tunefully, no, but loudly. Her song of choice is "Prince of Peace" (aka the echo song where the women get to sing the really cool part with all the names of God and the men's part is kind of boring)

But it has a little two-year-old twist:

I sing: You are holy
Eleanor: you are holy

Me: You are mighty
Eleanor: you are mighty

Me: You are worthy
Eleanor: wordy...

Me: Worthy of praise
Eleanor:

Me: I will follow
Eleanor: NO FOLLOW!

Me: I will listen
Eleanor: NO LISTEN!

Me: I will love you
Eleanor: I love you

Me: All of my days
Eleanor:

    That is too funny, Emily! I laughed out loud. What an independent little gal you have there. :)

    What is the CD you keep talking about? Every song that you've mentioned is one that I like. Sounds like something I need in my repertoire.

    These are the "Cedarmont Worship for Kids" CDs - we have volumes 1 and 2. Each contains 12 fairly "standard" praise songs (at least, I knew all but one of them), sung by kids, in simple, mostly unison arrangements. They're well-done and not obnoxious to listen to in the car, which is a good thing since Miles doesn't just have a "most requested" list, he has an "only request", so I hear these a LOT. I also find myself walking around the house singing praise songs, which is probably good for me and my attitude as well.
