We were driving home from an adventurous and fun afternoon with the kids- we went swimming at the ND Rockne pool (indoor heated, yay!), followed by a quick wardrobe change and then a fun evening with friends to celebrate one of my former YW's graduation. On the way home, Miranda was beyond tired and screaming. Megan was trying to finish the sandwich she couldn't get down (cuz she was too busy playing), and Zoë was eating a tootsie pop.
I think it was Zoë who started, but she began singing a song we've been using a lot lately*, "When we're helping, we're happy..." Megan joined quickly, and when they got to the "tra-la-la-la-la" Miranda even joined in (yes, the music made her stop screaming earlier).
I love music. I love good music even more. But, having my daughters join together (even if they aren't singing the right words or in the right tune), and being happy together is absolutely beautiful (from an emotional standpoint; from an artistic or an acoustic standpoint).
Oh, and thanks for the awesome swim suits, Nana! The girls loved having Princesses on their tummies, and having the cover-ups to wear as capes. I loved having suits that fit, that looked good, and cover-ups that helped keep them warm!
*It's been high on the usage list because of our Saturdays cleaning the church. We've even used "for we love to help Heavenly Father, cuz we all love him so"

Aaah. . . those sweet sister moments. Too bad they don't come along more often. At least at my house.
Absolutely perfect and lovely girls! I love that they sang together! I want our home to be filled with good music and laughter also!
