exactly right

So I added some tunes to my blog, because music is such a huge part of my life. One might accuse me of being downright freakish about it.

I was reading through the post from a couple days ago and Ooky runs to the computer because Amy Steinberg's Exactly is playing. Ooky has just discovered this song and thinks its fantastic.

And silly me, I thought he just liked the tune.

So I'm scrolling through the post, then he takes over scrolling through the post. And he says, "Mom, this song is perfect for your blog."

"Why?" I ask.

"Because it talks about how we need to be exactly where we are. And that we are where we need to be. All these pictures show us being where we need to be. No matter where we are."

Be still my heart.

And there you go. A profound statement from a five year old. On Learn Nothing Day :)

Oh my goodness Ooky is just so wise! What an observation. I love how our kids are just so in tune with how things are and that well, they're kind of perfect in their current state. Hard for me to keep in mind sometimes . . .

Thanks, that song was exactly what I needed to hear tonight. We are homeschooling our children for the first time this year and I'm so excited because it feels so right. I
