Elijah loves music and regularly bursts out in song when you least expect it. If you’re shopping at Safeway at the same time as us, you might hear Jesus Loves Me or Jingle Bells (at any time of the year.)
I thought it would be fun to look back on these songs when he’s older so here’s a list of what I think are his top songs right now. The first three are from the Cars soundtrack.
- Chuck Berry – Route 66
- Rascal Flatts – Life is a Highway
- The Chords – Sh-Boom
- Peter, Paul and Marry – Puff the Magic Dragon
- Oh I Do Like to Be Beside the Seaside
- Away in the Manger
- Jingle Bells
- Now Thank We All Our God
- A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
- Little Drummer Boy
I’m sure I’m forgetting a ton more but this is a pretty good start.
There must be some pleasure in graduating from The Wheels On The Bus …”.
I am always impressed with how immediately Elijah starts singing when you ask him to sing a song, during our phone calls. I hope music will always be a joy to him and to those around him.
