La la la la la

Emma spilled some yogurt on the kitchen floor and did nothing to clean it up.

Later, when I saw the mess, I sternly told her to get a rag and clean the floor. She got a damp washcloth and sat on the floor and began to scrub.

While she cleaned she started to sing: "Sing Sweet Nightingale. Sing Sweet Nightingale. La la la la la."

5 bonus points to the person who can tell me where that came from.

UPDATE: Congratulations to Dave for earning the 5 points. Wait until about the 30 second mark in the video to see what I am talking about.

So were you identifying with the cat?

Quite a picture...Emma imagines herself as the beautiful Cinderella, washing the floor... what a wonderful time of life!

I plan to trade my 5 points in for a Caribbean cruise. Thank you very much.

Miranda!!! Thanks for giving me your blog address. I've just spent my "free time" (while all 3 of my little ones are napping...yes, I know, that's impressive) catching up on your cutest life! You're girls and boy are soooo cute! I do wish we lived close enough they could play with each other. They would love being Cinderella's together! You're little dude would be quite outnumbered I'm afraid.
5-1. Poor fella. I miss you tons. Hopefully we can stay in touch better than we have been.
P.S. Can I tag along on the cruise?
