It'll be OK

At 7:00am I heard the sound of a little girl crying. She was trying to talk but her voice wasn't working. Through her tears and with a whisper quiet voice she was able to ask me "How can I sing with my friends if I can't talk?"

I picked her up, hugged her and told her that if she rested her voice it might come back before school started. [She is not sick - just couldn't talk].

She left to get dressed for school and at 7:05 from the other side of the house I heard the little girl singing. I went to investigate.

"It's OK, Mom. I can talk and sing now. I just had to blow my nose."

Don't you wish you could just blow your nose and everything would be OK.
