Grandma’s Angel Voice

This angel’s music was just what would do the trick.

Grandma's angels music

I understood why my son Scott and his wife, Stephanie, were moving to Boise.

There were better job opportunities there than in our sleepy Colorado town. That was important with a new baby coming. But it meant my first grandchild would live miles and miles away.

“He won’t even know his grandmother!” I complained to Scott one day as I helped him pack for the move. I picked up little Cameron Dean. I’ll be a stranger to him, I thought.

I looked down at the baby in my arms. Sing, my mind whispered. I’d never considered myself a singer. But I sang the first words that came into my head: “Puff, the magic dragon, lives by the sea, and frolicked in the autumn mist…” Scott laughed, thinking his mom had lost her mind. But I had a feeling I was on the right track.

The family moved to Idaho. When they called I sang Cameron “our song” over the phone. First there was silence in response, but soon that silence turned into coos and laughter. On my first visit to Idaho, I sang my grandchild to sleep in person.

Cameron knew who I was all right. His singing grandma, an angelic idea.
