Listen to the Still Small Voice

Today as we were driving home from school, Bennett was yelling at me about something. I chose to ignore him hoping he would realize that the way he was talking was not appropriate. He stopped yelling and was silent for a minute, then he said, "mom, someone was whispering in my ear. I think it was the Holy Ghost." I asked him what the Holy Ghost was saying and he said that he didn't want to tell me. After a very long time he said, "he told me to stop yelling at my mom."
