No More Beyonthe

Giggles is obsessed with “Single Ladies” by Beyonce. Yes, yes, I realize it is my fault that she even knows what the song is seeing as how she is all of 3 years old. Really, the only place they hear “grown folks music” is when we’re driving in the car on the weekends for all of a few minutes when they’re not glued to their VeggieTales or Disney Princess dvds (as you can see I am a model parent). But there is just something about that song that makes Giggles just light up. She breaks out in a toothy grin and gets to groovin’. So one day at home I thought it would be fun to play the video for them OnDemand. BIG MISTAKE. She wanted to watch it over and over and over and over and over and over. And that is too much gyrating and shaking for anybody to watch, let alone a preschooler. So I had to put my foot down after the sixth time she watched the video and I turned it off. The next thing I know, she was running through the house half-yelling, half-whining, with her little-girl-lisp: “Dad! Mommy thaid no more Beyonthe!!!” It was all I could do to keep from falling down laughing.

Talk about things I never thought I’d hear my 3-year old say!
