And now for something completely different

I love it when I throw out deep thoughts and don’t even get a comment, let alone discussion or disagreement. And since i love the thunderous silence of an empty inbox so much, here’s something cute my kids are doing.

I blame it on Shrek the Third, though part of it is my fault. I mean, if they had already heard some of the great songs in the soundtrack before they watched the movie they wouldn’t
keep yelling, “Mommy it’s a Shrek song.” whenever they hear it on the radio.

Right now the boy is in the shower singing at the top of his lungs, and carrying the tune very well I might add,

Everybody’s got soul, got so much soul….

You’ve got soul and I’ve got soul,
Everybody’s got soul…

got so much soul.”

In the other room the Girl is yelling, over and over again, the only line she remembers from a Beatles song.

“Live and let die!
Live and let Die!
Live and let Die!
Live and let DIE!”

She says die so gleefully that it’s really hard not to laugh.
Mixed together as I hear it it goes something like this.

“Everybody got live and soul let die.
Got so much soul live and let die.
You’ve got soul and LIVE AND LET DIE I’ve got soul LET DIE
Everybody Live and let die…”

And then the Boy switches midstream

“Play that funky music white boy..
LIVE AND LET DIE!

Ladies and gentleman, I think we have a new hit on our hands. Anyone want to sign them. :)?

  1. Hi.
    I found you through SAJ. Good luck on the towel rationing. My MIL bought each of her three grandkids one full size towel in their favorite color. She washes it once a week. If you leave it on the floor, for your next bath you will have a wet towel to dry off with.

    Oh, I almost forgot I had a few ideas for your girls bday party.

    If you don’t already have something else whipped up a winter wonderland themed tea party would be pretty simple.

    snowballs for cake – laid on a platter in a pattern like a snowflake.
    paper snowflakes hung from the ceiling
    hot cocoa instead of tea (my girls didn’t like the tea at their tea party and they were 2 and 6)
    mini marshmallows, regular marshmallows, gumdrops, licorice/twizzlers and toothpicks to make snowpeople
    fake jewelry from the dollar store
    anyways, you get the idea there are so many ways to throw a tea party. Have fun!!!

  2. Ha! Your kids are funny. Their song sounds about like the kind I hear around here except that my husband is the one doing the singing and mixing up the words.
