Old McDonald Had a Farm

This is part of what happened today, but it deserves it’s own blog.  :)

One of the first songs we taught the kids to sing is “Old McDonald.”  After a few days, we started changing it around.  We decided that Old McDonald had an Aman with a “Yes…No…Yes…No.”  At that time, whenever he would ask to see if he could do something, he would follow it with a “Yes…No…Yes…No…”   Also at that time, if Serawit wanted to blink her eyes or anything else she would yell “MOMMY”  in the most pathetic way you could imagine, so when Old McDonald had a Serawit, it would be with a “MOOOOMMMMMMYYYYYYY.”  The kids quickly figured out we were teasing them.  They also figured out they could use that to tease each other.  It’s been an on-going inside joke with us ever since.

Today on the way back from the pool, Aman started singing Old McDonald, and this time Old McDonald had a Mommy.  Mommy goes “Stop!  Stop!  Stop!”

    I was told I was forget to add what Daddy goes. He goes “tickle tickle tickle.”
