Old MacDonald...


"Old MacDonald had a farm E-I-E-I-O.
And on his farm he had a Anaconda... Platypus... Jackalope."

That's what Chris sings to Owen, but instead of the standard, cow, horse, dog, etc., he comes up with these strange, exotic and sometimes fictional animals! Even I'm entertained.

In addition to your not-so-run-of-the-mill song, he educates Owen on the origin of peas. Yes, peas. But Chris' version is that peas come from outer space. Should I be worried?

I love watching father and son interract with one another. It's one of the many reasons why I love having Owen in our lives. A simple thing, a silly song, and then Owen's giggles. It's an overwhelming, extraordinary feeling.

So cute! I'm glad Chris likes silly songs about peas and mythical creatures. It makes songs so much more interesting!
