Little Songs



Harper sings all the time.  Lately, it has been a never-ending version of the "Little Einsteins" theme song.  Cute, until you have heard it about 15 times an hour for the past 2 weeks. Lucy and I beg and plead with her to take a day off from it, "Sing anything else you want.  Sing Mary Poppins or Annie or 5 Little pumpkins, anything but Little Einsteins today" is Lucy's cry for mercy.
She has other favorites, but she often returns to Little Einsteins.  I have to admit, it is cute, all of her sweet little inflections (no r sounds, missing s sounds and adding randon words when she doesn't know the real ones).  I also love when it is completely off-key and strained or when it seems that even she is tired of singing, but for some reason, must sing on. 
This video was not caught spontaneously. I realized that I didn't have any video of her singing and since it is so much of her (and all of our) life then it needed to be captured.  She is more shy and tentative in the video, usually she is singing as loud and as unashamed as any great singer.
