Singing a Song is Fun to Do

I discovered that James likes us to sing to him after bath time and while we are getting him ready for bed. So, I decided to get the Primary Children's Songbook so I could sing him Primary Songs. that went over really well. He would go to sleep right away when singing. I would continue to sing just because I enjoyed it so much! Then I decided that I would get a Tongan one so Aho could sing the Primary Songs in Tongan. Then I decided that I wanted to get the CD's in Tongan so I could play them for James. On Monday we went to the JSMB to see the Joseph Smith movie and went down to the distribution center. I got the books I wanted, and asked them about the CD's. To my amazement, they don't have them in Tongan, but they do have them in Japanese, Italian and German? What? There are probably more Tongan saints than Italian and German combined but there isn't a CD with the Tongan language. I was flabbergasted. I asked the guy if there is any plan to get them made, and he said, "well, I am not sure what is on their schedule." Who is they? After I left, I decided I would get the cd's that just had the music and have Aho record him singing the songs. Well, he will never have time for that, but, I can dream!

Maybe it's because most of them speak English?

Lua told me he would, but we probably won't, just because we might never find time. If Lua does, I will give you a copy. I told him he should go sell it to the distribution services, so, you might have to buy it! LOL
