My little Anna

Anna is a pro at making up her own songs. It is one of our favorite things to do together. She usually likes to begin with a little riff of humming to get herself going. After that, the lyrics are as fresh on her lips as they are in her mind. The result: one really really cute 5 or 4 year old. This is one of my favorite pictures of Anna and I. Even though this picture was taken 3 years ago, I love to look at it while I listen to Anna's song.

Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm

Why could I have something to play with,

You don't know what it is.

If I would have to play with something,

My birthday is coming up right now.

I'm gonna turn 5 or 4,

But if I am gonna turn 5,

I gonna get lots of toys,

I gonna have fun, and then I'm gonna eat,

I'm gonna have lots of fun.

I'm gonna have my birthday coming up.

That is just too cute for words. I don't get to see that side of them and I just love that you have that special time with your sweet, sweet little daughter. Cherish that.

I loved her song too. She is definitely ready for the big-time. Maybe a community production of the music man, for example...
