Sep. 21st, 2009 09:11 pmI put Alex to bed about twenty minutes ago. She's up there singing at the top of her lungs:
Well, Joshua was said to be a mighty foe
Cause he marched right up to old Jericho

Better not build a wall around your home town.
More four-year-olds should be familiar with the works of the Chad Mitchell Trio. ...Although I think we should probably hold off on teaching her to sing The John Birch Society.

Yesterday I inadvertently taught her Tom Paxton's "What Did You Learn In School Today" before I really had time to think it through.
