That's how we roll...

Tonight as I was tucking J. in, I arranged his buddies incorrectly.  He showed me exactly how the Blues go, along w/ his dinosaurs and little bear go.  All in a row on his pillow.  There's barely room for his head!
And then he said that the stripes in his comforter go by his pillow, because "that's how I rock this party"!
I started to laugh, so he started spinning some more cliches:
"That's how this skateboard rolls"
"That's how I put the book on the shelf"
"This is how the coin drops into my piggybank"

He lives to make me laugh!  Doesn't usually take much!  ;D

Classical Music

It's so refreshing and makes me smile when I hear my sweet E. who is 3, humming along to Peer Gynt - Morning by Edvard Grieg.

Here's a visual for you!  This is one of my favorite classical songs, and every time I listen to it, this YouTube video absolutely captures what visions I have in my head!  It is purely relaxing!

Enjoy!

Creepin' Me Out!

Today I picked up my little E. who was shopping w/ my mom after preschool today.  They were at the dollar store and near it was a Halloween store that was inhabiting an empty storefront.  On the sign, there was a pumpkin and maybe a ghost?  I can't even remember now!  Anyway, E. said, "That place is creepin' me out, Mommy!"  Then, she thought for a minute and said, "Hey!  I got a idea!  We can just get the monster and then it won't get us!  We'll hurt him and then he won't be creepin' me out!"
Intuitive thinking for a 3 year old!
