We will now add one more song to the NotAroundMom list at our house.

In The Hollow of Thy Hand

I can't.  Nope.  I love it. 

Two brothers sang it during church today, one just returned from a mission and the other leaves soon.  They did a very nice job.

But seriously?  Have you listened to that song??

I was holding the Little Man, and listening to that dern song, and thinking how fast he'll grow up. 

He might as well be turning 19 tomorrow. 

I may have gotten a little teary.

Then I remembered that I still have nineteen years. 
It will go fast, but it will be fun - how could it not be with these two??

Then, just to lift my woe-is-me-my-baby-will-grow-up-fly-the-coop mood, I learned in primary that in the song, Praise to the Man ... "The Man" apparently "confused with Jehovah."  (In case that is not funny to you, the actual words would be "Praise to the Man, who communed with Jehovah").  

It is also possible that the Reverence Jar* fuzzy balls were blessed during the opening prayer, "...please bless the fuzzy balls that they will be in our jars, and that we won't have any fuzzies taken out, so that we will be reverent..." (something to that effect). 

The Primary President may or may not have been holding back a little laugh during the prayer. 

Oh, and Seth has been humming In The Hollow of Thy Hand ALL afternoon.  He is clearly very concerned with my little tender emotions, I think it's his attempt at making me tougher.  

*each class has a Reverence Jar - we put little fuzzy balls in them when they are being reverent and take them out when they are not so reverent.  There class gets a treat once their jar is filled.
