The Letter Factory.

There’s something about a song.

If it’s your favorite song it makes you happy and if you’re crazy about it you sing it every day or maybe you hum it two, three, ten times a day…at least from my experience.

My son has a favorite song. Wait my son has many favorites – it’s almost pretty draining! His favorite for the past month or two: the Alphabet Song. He sings this song at the table, in the tub, while getting dressed, on the potty, on the ride to and from anywhere, in the store, I’d imagine at preschool, and in his sleep (no honestly).  I’ve even caught him walking up to people in the store and singing the song or asking a person if they know how to pronounce a certain letter of the alphabet.  It’s like this little dude is a walking band of three – him, his self, and he!

This morning however, there was a different tune playing – silence. I wondered what was wrong with the kid. Was he not feeling well? Too tired to sing? What could it be?  I went on to prepare our lunches as my son ate his breakfast.  There was a slight moan…and then a little voice said, “the A say’s Ahh, the B says Beh.” We turned and looked at each other and just smiled.  I then thought to myself…they’re back! Let the singing commence.
