Practicing “Happy Birthday”

Mallory has been obsessed with singing Happy Birthday ever since we had Grandpa and Shane’s birthdays right in a row earlier this month. Last week at Alli’s house she somehow learned that it was just Alli’s mom’s birthday so it’s been “sing ‘happy birt-day to Al-son’s mommy’, mommy”. This week it was one of her daycare friend’s birthday so for the past two days, we’ve been singing “happy birt-day to Meggie”.

This morning I told her that Baby Arlo would probably have the next birthday, so she wanted to sing Happy Birthday to Baby Arlo.

Then she lifted up my shirt and said “It’s your BIRT-DAY, Baby Arlo!!”.

I quickly made sure that Baby Arlo knew that today was NOT a good day for a birthday, seeing as how Rick is out of town for another day.
