The other night my mom and I started watching The Sound of Music. She was excited and said it was one of her favorite movies. However, none of it was familiar to her. When the songs came on, I could see a glimpse of recognition as I started to sing along. but she said it was like new to her. We watched a little while, then stopped it to watch another day. Tonight I put it back on and we picked it up just before, “My Favorite Things”. Mom again said it was her favorite movie. When the song came on and I started singing along, so did she. As the movie played, she said she didn’t remember any of it. But when a song came on and I started singing it, she would join in. It made us both very happy.

I Found God today as my mom remembered and sang along with her favorite movie.
