Cradle cap glows under blue lights.
Being a grown up is hard.
----
Bug is very enjoying "the farmer book" that Kalki sent. While she's singing the song now (that Old MacDonald had a moose on his farm), she was just cracking me up while "reading" the book. What follows is a small sampling of what she was saying. I would post more, but I'm not a quick transcriber.
how many do we have?
there's a little blue pail
i can take the big blue pail
i know! we can use a green pail or a red pail
we can use a yellow pail
i need a red pail she said
i need a red pail to carry the popcorn to the corn basin
i can help the cars go round and round
I don't think she said "basin," but that's what it sounded like. I just asked her where she takes the popcorn. She said, "to the corn basin," so I guess she did say "basin." I asked if she has a basin at school. She said, "Yeah." What's in the basin at school? Jelly and Emily. What are Jelly and Emily? They're in her class. She has jelly on her bread. Emily wants to take a bath. I'm so confused.

Her "text" sounds very Dora-the-Explorer-esque, I have to say...problem solving! :)
I can just hear Dora/Bug:
Say it with me!
Red pail!
Popcorn!
Big corn basin!

Oh, and I did NOT know that cradle cap glows under blue light (will have to check that out in about a year or so).
I did know that being a grown up is hard, though. In fact, being a grown up seriously sucks sometimes. It would be much easier if I could throw a tantrum the way my toddler does :)
