Personalized song lyrics

Molly was in the mood today to sing some Christmas carols. (I think she sang some at school today in preparation for caroling at a local nursing home.) This is what I heard... "tap the halls and name them Molly, falalala la la la la". Otherwise known as "Deck the Halls". Too funny! I am hoping she will share some more lyrics soon!

Molly and I have the best talks on the way home from school. Last week it was a deep discussion on snow, and how she wants some snow for Christmas. I had to explain that we live in Georgia where it is very warm, and we don't get much snow here. She then cried hard for about 10 minutes and wanted to know where the snow was. I told her up north, and she insisted we drive there soon.
Today's discussion was about "her baby" she is having and whether it will be a boy or girl, and where it would sleep. I asked when she is having this baby and she said when she grows up. She then told me that the baby would be a girl and she could sleep in her trundle bed. I said but when you grow up and have a baby she won't live in this house with mommy and daddy, she will live in her own house. She then burst into tears and said she never wants to move and wants to live with mommy and daddy. This crying persisted for a few minutes. I just laughed at how I would remind her of this discussion when she decides it is time for her to move out on her own, and I will be the one crying!! That will be a fun conversation!

I'm laughing out loud as I read this. I do hope you are printing out your blog posts and putting them in a scrapbook or journal for Molly and Will to read one day. Priceless!
