version 1.2

Todays Doug eat Dog strip. I always did think that song was a little less then positive. The second verse of the version I used to sing the Kiddo was better, it went like this:

When the bough breaks,
the cradle will rise,
and up will fly baby into the sky.

He still loves the song, he thinks it's great that the baby gets to fly at the end.

Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud

My mum sent me a Flanders and Swan cd several months back. I love to listen to it with half an ear while I'm puttering about sewing or cleaning. Anyway she sent it so that the Kiddo could learn the Hippopotamus song. I have yet to get him to sing any more then the refrain. I must say a tiny 3 year old voice singing "mud, mud, glorious mud" is definitely quite something to hear. At some point in the near future I will have to try and get him on film doing it.

Until then... since I KNOW most of you have NO idea what I'm talking about... check this out:
