Be Still, Blueberries

Nice title, eh? Well hopefully by the end of this entry you will understand...

So I had the genius idea to feed Roark blueberries this morning. I pureed them, added oatmeal and viola - breakfast of champions. He loved it, and I loved feeding them to him, until he sneezed them all over me...but alas - he finished two bowls and made me and his Aunt Mary proud. I'm thankful that I didn't feed him until after I dressed him for the day.


Now, regarding the be still - yes I did say that to Roark as I was feeding him but it is also a name of a song by The Fray. It is the latest entry to my songs I like to sing to the little man, while sobbing like a baby. Roark, just laughs at me...here are the words and a link to the song, go ahead and sing...and cry.

"Be Still"
Be still and know that I'm with you
Be still and know that I am here
Be still and know that I'm with you
Be still, be still, and know

When darkness comes upon you
And covers you with fear and shame
Be still and know that I'm with you
And I will say your name

If terror falls upon your bed
And sleep no longer comes
Remember all the words I said
Be still, be still, and know

And when you go through the valley
And the shadow comes down from the hill
If morning never comes to be
Be still, be still, be still

If you forget the way to go
And lose where you came from
If no one is standing beside you
Be still and know I am

Be still and know that I'm with you
Be still and know I am
