Do You Sing to Your Children?

My little boy and I stand on our balcony each night and sing to the moon before he goes to bed. It has become my favorite time of the day. Sometimes we sing Barges, and if there are stars out we sing Twinkle Little Star. And every night we finish with this song, which is my all-time favorite and another taught to me by my own mother:

I see the moon and the moon sees me
The moon sees somebody I want to see
God bless the moon, and God bless me
And God bless the somebody I want to see.

Most people know that verse, but it's the next verse that I really want my boy to hear:

I really think that God above
Created you for me to love
He chose you from all the rest
Because He knew I would love you the best.

Of course, when we sing together I am not looking at the moon. I've seen the moon before. I'm looking at my boy's face as he sings words that I hope he will always remember.
