My little boy has a way of mixing and combining his favorites into little rhymes and songs all day long. He chants and talks to himself and to his toys and I TRY to catch the treasures he says:
 |
| Our garden!!! We actually ate tomatoes this year. That's a first for us!! |
This is a merge of a favorite Joy School song and Mulan:
"Look around the room with me.... I can see...Chinese" (He spotted the characters in the Lo Mein noodles on the table)
I was so impressed!
"You're a gas, mom"
"What?!?"
"I'm gonna put you in the car because you're a gas!"
I still have no idea where he got this from. I don't normally go around telling people they're a gas, but then again I wouldn't put it past my old fashioned self.
"L's going to go to Joy school too?"
"Yes, when she's big like you"
"Oh, YES! She will get bigger like I. You are sure right!"
I wish you could hear him say "you are sure right." with all his excitement. Who knew a kid could be so happy his mom's right?
"Who's at the door? Anne Shirley and Diana! Come in!"
This is because I read several
Anne of Green Gables books, some with him and then we watched the movies. They were his new imaginary friends.

| A fun day trip to the Baltimore Aquarium with Aunt Sara and Grma Bev |
 |
| Everyone else is going forward, we are going back in time to VHS's. They are free and include the classics we love! |
"I want to go on a bear hunt and work and preach as missionaries do."
A merge of
We're Going on a Bear Hunt book and
I hope they call me on a mission primary song.
"How does your garden grow? With cockle crows and cockle hens and let's get down to business!"
A merge of
Mary, Mary Quite Contrary nursery rhyme and Mulan's song - "let's get down to business and defeat the Huns!"
This last quote was so funny that Jared posted it on FB and his step mom called it a "great birds and bees discourse." HA!
I love this little boy like I never knew I could love a kid! I'm so pleased that he is growing with an imagination and loves books, nursery rhymes, and singing. He is such a treasure in our house.
