“The Days of the Week”

Here’s another song from Evan. Suz works so hard with him, and it makes me so proud to see him learning.

One of my favorite things in the entire world is hearing little children sing. When the kids choir sings at church, I either get a little teary-eyed or can’t stop giggling at the sweetness of those little voices singing about God. Even if they are usually a little off-key. I think I can understand why Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me…” Their innocence and child-like faith just get me every time.

Imagine my joy when I get to hear my child sing every day! Evan loves to sing. His favorite tune is Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, but he knows lots of songs and sings them throughout the day, sometimes pretending to strum the guitar while he sings, and often getting the words wrong.

Here’s a glimpse of the little guy singing last week. I had to video him in the chair, because it’s one of the only times he is still enough to get on video! Enjoy!

  1. Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
  2. Row, Row, Row Your Boat

What do you think…future American Idol?

Lyrics

We’ve had a few request for the words to Joe’s song to encourage Evan to use the big boy potty. You can listen to the song in the post below.

*I’ll post a disclaimer first and say that if you do not want to read the words poo-poo or potty repeatedly, then do not, I repeat DO NOT read the lyrics or listen to the song. I warned you!

It’s poopy time. Can you go poo-poo in the potty?

It’s poopy time. Can you go poo-poo in the potty?

Can you go? Can you go? Can you go? Can you go…poo-poo?

It’s poopy time. Can you go poo-poo in the potty?

It’s poopy time. Can you go poo-poo in the potty?

Can you go? Can you go? I said now can you go? Can you go….poo-poo?

[Bridge]: (not included in recording) Can you push it out? Can you push it out? Can you push it into the potty? (repeat)

The Song: It’s Poopy Time

So, if you haven’t yet read it, read Suzanne’s previous post, A scene from our house. Here’s the song I was playing for Evan.

It’s Poopy Time (Press Play) It\’s Poopy Time

Joe made up a really pretty song to try to encourage the “digestion process” for Evan, IF you know what I mean. It didn’t work, but we all enjoyed the song anyway.
