Finding My Voice

On the way to school, I was vainly pleading with Rollie to simply ignore his screaming, writhing sister, rather than egging her on by continually yelling, "no!" (Where on earth did he learn that?) The cacophony made by their voices combined with the radio was making my ears bleed at this point. I woke up with a sore throat and barely any voice.

Me [voice at a whisper]: "Rollie, please just don't talk to her. Just ignore her."
Rollie: "Mama, you're losing your voice."
Me: "Yes, Rollie, I am."
Rollie: "Tiller and I need to find it."

Sweetie, y'all already helped me find it.
