Here we go again...

Another tiny figure bent on destruction has found his feet.

Nothing under 30 inches high in this house stands a chance!
And while I'm speaking of Miles, here's another little tidbit...

We've recently started singing the hymn "Holy, Holy, Holy" as part of our getting-started time of the school day, and I taught the kids some motions to do as we sing. In the last week or 2, I've noticed that wherever Miles is when someone starts to sing that song, he whips his head around, gets a big smile, and crawls on over to watch.

I'd like to think I have a theory to explain this, although it probably is not entirely theologically sound: If he has an eternal soul, then he must have been somewhere before he was born here. And if he was in Heaven, then maybe those are the words he heard most often (Rev. 4:8), so when he hears them now, he recognizes them??? I'd love to hear if other parents with little babies do the experiment to verify this theory!

I know it's more likely that Miles just likes the song and enjoys watching us do the funny hand motions... but still, I like the other explanation better.
