This morning, as Simeon was playing in the living room with his toy 'hippie van' (A Volkswagen bus 1:64 replica), I got the pleasure of knowing how much he listens to the songs we sing to him. We've recently made up our own family version of the song "Baby Beluga" by Raffi, as our big Ford Windstar van has recently been christened 'The Beluga'.
Anyway, as I was making breakfast and he was playing away I heard him singing word for word:
"Big white beluga on the open road
driving to and driving fro;
Kids go in and the kids go out
see the gas pouring out of your spout!"
It's one of those little parental rewards that I have to take the time to pay attention to, as I could so easily miss it.
