Singing the Blues


This little turkey got into some trouble yesterday. I was extremely upset with him and put him in time out. At our house time out is on a little chair in the garage, and the garage is right by the laundry room. So he's in time-out, mad at me for putting him there, and I am in the laundry room trying to switch a batch of laundry with one arm. (Quite the feat) Then he starts singing. It was a new tune. One he just happened to make up in his frustrated state, and quite catchy. And with each new line I was almost in tears with laughter as I listened to him singing the Tyler blues. He sang about a "house in a forest thats green, and no-one there is being mean, like mommy and James. But Kylie and Ben are nice. And we eat candy all day, and never go to time out. And Yoda is my Jedi friend, but he hasnt let me meet the other jedis. But thats alright cuz I have my friends at preschool. I wish I was done with school. That would be really cool. But its not at my house anymore so I dont get to use my jedi tricks on mom. She is so weird. You hear that mom? You are weird. But I like when you're nice to me, and let me play webkinz, and eat muffins. Thats so nice of you when you do that."

I couldnt stay mad at him after such an entertaining performance.

Love it!!!! I love it when Javan makes up his own songs too and he doesn't think anyone is listening. But this song is priceless! I am so glad you wrote it all down - it will be hilarious when he gets older!
