Sweetly Sings the Donkey

Estelle and the other toddlers at daycare have a new favorite song. We discovered it the other night when she was jumping on the bed (I know, we're bad parents) and singing it over and over again...the most recognizable line was, "Hee-haw, Hee-haw..." The face she makes when she says that line is hilarious. We knew it had something to do with a donkey.

Yesterday, I asked what it could be. Her teacher told me the words, and they go something like this:

(Tune the tune of Itsy Bitsy Spider)
Sweetly sings the donkey
At the break of day
If you don't feed them, this is what they say:
"Hee-haw, Hee-haw, hee-haw-hee-haw-hee-haw."

For your viewing pleasure, take a look at the video. Priceless.

My friends

Estelle has just started getting into make-believe in a big way. She pretends her "friends" are tired and need to be tucked in...or sick and need to have their temperature taken...or naughty and need a time-out. Here she is snuggling with them.
