Aug. 17, 2009 - The King is ...
During Family Devotions, Daddy has been teaching us two new songs out of the hymnal every week to go along with our family favorites. Last week, one of the songs was The King is Exalted. Miss Emily was singing along with all of her three year old enthusiasm. I love to listen to my babies sing praises to our God. It warms my heart more than almost anything else out there.
However, this one night, I was warmed not by my heart but by the laughter that I had to keep buried while I straight facedly whispered to my Emmie-Doodle, “Doodle, it’s the King is Exalted, not the King is exhausted.”
Yes, if I was the king and had to put up with all of us crazies, I would be exhausted. But not our King! He is Exalted!

LOL, too cute!
When Magdalyn was around 4 (I think), she used to sing it the exact same way. It took us months to convince her it was Exalted not exhausted. She was just sure that both words fit, because all of the people He cares for and watches over and saves must make Him exhausted.
