a father’s ears…

sooo, last night kasey went over to a young ladies apartment to help her clean…that means it’s daddy and molly at home hanging out…which in turn means there’s music involved in some way shape or form…this time daddy just had to lower the keyboard and bring out a mic for molly…i’m a little biased, but i have to say that she is the most adorable child that God ever created…i pulled up a chair and away she went…

i’m not real sure what molly loved more…daddy letting her pound away on the keys or having her own microphone…but either way she was having a blast…and so was daddy!!! at one point she had to take a quick break and she took off out to the living room…she returned with her “blanky” in her mouth and she immediately went right back to it…only now the singing was a little hindered…if you look closely at the picture below you can even see this infamous “blanky”…

now, to anyone outside of our home this sound was i’m sure quite annoying…some may have even wondered what was going on exactly…but to me, it was beautiful…my little girl was singing to daddy…and my ears were tuned in to every last note!!!

sooo it is in the middle of the night as well…about a week or two ago molly was crying…at 2:30am!!! kasey and i are clear on the other side of the house…molly’s door is closed…and the air conditioner is running…but daddy’s ears were tuned in…and i was up and running over to see what wrong…here she was stuck, both of her legs out through the slats in her crib, with legs crossed up…i got her legs free and tried to soothe her, but this was no use…she wanted daddy to hold her…so i picked her up and we sat in the rocker until she fell back asleep…

i can’t say that i really know why…but God was just telling me that no matter how far away i may feel…no matter how many boundaries there seems to be in between us…He still hears my voice…He is still there, tuned in, and ready to listen to me…He is still ready to help me…He is still there to hold me…and no matter what it sounds like to me it’s beautiful in His ears, when His son is singing to Him…

after posting this, this morning…i was asked about a song…i found this video to it and just had to add it here…check out the words…”i called, You answered. and You came to my rescue. and i wanna be where You are…” great stuff!!!
