Today, on the way home in the car Tarr was fussing. I made several different suggestions to Tiger of activities to do to keep the toddler occupied. Despite all of Tiger's effort nothing was working and Tarr seemed to get more agitated.

Finally, I suggested to Tiger to sing a song to his little brother in hopes this might calm down the toddler. Tiger starts singing a made-up song that included all of his favorite superheros. The more he got into the song the louder he became. The louder he became the more off-key he grew. The content of the song made no sense and eventually, I had to wave my hand in frantic disperation for him to stop.

Me: Tiger what in the world are you doing???

Tiger: I'm singng a song, Mom, like you asked me to do.

Me: That wasn't a song. That was a bunch of noise. How in the world do you expect THAT craziness to calm down your brother??

Tiger: Well it must have been beautiful noise to him, because Tarr fell asleep.

I looked in the rearview mirror and sure enough, Tarr was peacefully sleeping. I digress - to some it's just plain 'ole noise and to others it's beautiful noise.
