Child 1 doesn't like it when anybody sings in the car (this is a big bummer for me, since I do a lot of my singing in the car, but that's for another post). This afternoon, Child 2 decided to start singing Old McDonald, which prompted the invention of the STOP SINGING ALARM, which is just him yelling really loudly. The instructions, to his brother, were: "when you hear the stop singing alarm... STOP SINGING." So, this was the scene in the car today:
Old McDonald had a f-
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
- i, e i o. And on thi-
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
- he had a chick-
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
-bok bok here and a bok -
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
and then after a few minutes, Child 2 just started messing with Child 1 (because he's MY boy, and he does that. *sniff* so proud) so it changed to the following:
bok bok here and a bok bok there (quietly)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
bok bok here and a bok bok there
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
bok bok here and a bok bok there
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
bok bok here and a bok bok there
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Repeat.
Kids are such fun.
