Little Star

lately Miss A has been singing a lot. However, I pull out the video and nope she won't sing. She just wants to take the camera from me. But I was able to capture a couple of her songs. And the cute way she says "I LOVE YOU" with OUT her pacifier. She is just such a joy - if I do say so myself.

Forevermore

September 1976
Beckie and Lyn









I recently heard a song - which is a new favorite of mine. And like a lot of songs they tend to bring me back to a memory instantly. This song made me think of my big sister and how she taught me hand clapping games (you know saying a cute little song/rhyme with a rhythm as you clap your hands together). I still sing this little song and it always brings me back to the times she and I would play those hand games. I can't wait to teach this to my little girls and hope that they too will have wonderful memories that I have of my big sister and the beautiful friendship we have together now!

Say, Say my playmate
Come out and play with me
and bring your dollies 3
climb up my apple tree
slide down my rain barrel
into my cellar door
and we'll be jolly friends
forever more - more - more !

Say, say my playmate,
I cannot play with you.
My dolly has the flu,
Boohoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo.
Ain't got no rain barrel,
Ain't got no cellar door.
But we'll be jolly friends,
Forever more, more, more!
