Evidently, Mo feels that the powers that be (me and DH) are crushing her indomitable spirit these days. She’s been implying we’ve got our foot on her neck by asking that she wash her hands after she uses the toilet! Oh the humanity! I mean, it’s really bringing her down to become a member of the Clean Plate Club by having to eat all of her green beans and all of her rice. Dear, sweet little Mo is not one to be kept quiet. The other day, I asked her to stop fooling around and finish her lunch. Her reponse?
Yeah, she’s singing the chorus of We Shall Overcome. I don’t doubt the next time I ask her to pick up her toys when she’s done playing, I’ll be treated to a preschool rendition of Swing Low, Sweet Chariot (and by the way, Kathleen Battle is phenomenal in this clip, so please watch it).
