Today, Sadie made a big mess in Josie's room... she dumped a whole basketful of toys out in the floor. I told her she had to pick them up and put them away, so we started singing the "Cleanup Song," which goes a little something like this:
"Clean up, Clean up, everybody clean up!" Well, Sadie, not WANTING to clean up her mess, changed all the words and sang this song to me: "OH, I don't have to clean up, but YOU do!"
The girls have been wearing their "jingle socks" for two days straight... these are little green and red striped elfy-looking socks with little bells sewn on them. They love them because they're fun and noisy - I love them because I can hear the kids coming! Today, on the way to Grandma's house to help decorate her tree, we sang "Jingle Bells." Josie immediately started kicking her feet up in the air and wiggling them in time to the song :) We may have a little virtuoso on our hands!
