Make A Difference

This old gal…

Couldn’t believe that song…Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious popped into the head…couldn’t believe that when it did…she knew…all…the words…every…single…one…not because she’d sung it recently…it’s been 50 years…not because she liked the movie…12 year old me…thought it was boring…

But because…when that little brother of hers…was in third grade…his music program…was a Mary Poppins theme...he was chosen to perform a little line…of…you guessed it...Supercalifragilisticexpialadocious…and that kid…was empowered…sang that song constantly…filled that 800 square foot house…with those um dittles day in…and day out…

Not a singer really…hadn’t performed solo before…but when that little towhead took the stage…he owned it…because someone…believed in him…someone…made him feel talented…someone…gave him…a chance…

And that baby brother of mine…husband…father…grandfather…has been owning his stage…ever since…cuz you know what they say…if you act like you own it…you own it…
​
And that brother of mine…would agree…
