Girls after my own heart

As a true child of my mother I sing all the time. As a child I would just make up songs and now as an adult with kids I make up songs to sing to them. I knew this had rubbed off on Sofia since she makes up songs all the time. It wasn't until today that I realized it had rubbed off on Ali too. Last night I took a video of Ali singing a song that I thought she had learned in class. I assumed she had messed up the words since I didn't think they would talk about "monsters in your bedroom" at school. She even had a name for the song! I showed Ali's teacher today to see if I could figure out what the words are and I learned that they don't sing anything like that in class. It was then it occurred to me that Ali had completely made up the song herself. Here is my little singer for your listening pleasure....



If anyone has trouble understanding her, here are the words to her "song".

Creature In The Wood

Creature in the wood still child
Sleeping in the wood child
Sleeping in the wood baby child
Sleeping in the wood baby child
Don't you worry there is a monster in your bedroom
There is a monster in your bedroom sometimes
but bear can't live in there anytime
and come back anytime, anytime I come back.
