Last night, we had a Family Home Evening on Music and what a gift it is. We talked about how music can be something to help us feel better when we’re feeling badly.
I played different songs for the kids and asked them how the songs made them feel.
“Good.”
“Good.”
“Good.”
“Guys,” I said, “There’s SO many other feelings that just ‘good.’ You can say, ‘silly, crazy, goofy, happy, strong, sad, yucky’ -think about what the song makes you want to do!”
After that it was a free-for-all.
“It makes me want to take a horse in a horse pen and grab his feet and FFFFFFrow it outta there!”
Okay, Trent… whatever floats your Feelings Boat.
After listening to several songs, I told the kids we were going to make a CD for our family. We were going to fill it full of songs that make our family feel good.
“When one of us is feeling badly, we can listen to the music and it will help,” I said, “What should we call the CD?”
“Feeling Good Music,” Lacy said.
“Jeep Radio!” said Trenton.
Feeling Good Jeep Radio.
It’s our album.
I want to share it with you.
