♪ Abby's repertoire ♫

Abby is becoming quite the singer. Here are a couple of her favorites:

  • "Up above" - This is her version of Twinkle, Twinkle. She will sing lots of fairly unrecognizable words then throw in a few "up aboves". I love it! We have a Twinkle book that is definitely a favorite.
  • "Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, etc." - Mike and I thought she was singing the Hello Primary song in nursery, but apparently they are not so...either we have a composer in the works or she has picked up on the Hello song the couple times Mike or I has sung it to her.

At bedtime, we have started asking her what she'd like us to sing to her. These are, hands down, the winners:
  • "Sun" - With her hands clenched, she says "sun" and is ready for "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam. (Her hands are clenched so that she can open and close them on "Sunbeam!")
  • "Chi God" - In Family Home Evening last week we sang lines from "I am a Child of God" several times and she loves it. I can't imagine a song and a message I'd rather she love.

Singing with kids is so great! Tommy loves to pick the songs for FHE. His favorites are Twinkle and Eensy Weensy Spider. Abby is so cute and she's getting so big!

I love that! All the staple primary songs are our bedtime songs and Annie's favorite is still Twinkle Twinkle. Wait til she sings all the words for the first time. You'll die!
