Mother of the Year: 2008
I was filming my three year old this morning while she quoted some poems during breakfast and captured this moment on tape. Thought you all might appreciate it!
Of course, the main event was supposed to be the following video of Pixie reciting her favorite poems from the book, Polkabats and Octopus Slacks by the irresistibly funny poet/artist, Calef Brown. Colleen sent us this book after I saw a copy of hers when she was visiting and had a fit of jealousy for it. Thanks so much, Colleen! Penny can recite by heart 13 of the 14 poems in the book. We had no idea she loved it so much until one night for family night she just started saying the poem, Funky Snowman. Half an hour later she had said all the rest of them. What a gal! Sorry, she will probably be hard to understand, but I think there is a copyright issue if I put the actual poems here on the blog.
