I've been outfilked by a four year old.
Jun. 3rd, 2012 09:13 pmOkay, so today I got rooked into walking in a parade along with some people from different agencies working with 0 to 5 year olds. We also invited families with children of that age to come with us, and in the end the group was about sixty people, ranging in age from "can't sit up in the stroller yet" to "who says retired people can't have fun?" I was banner wrangling, with the help of some adolescents as well as a couple of determined pre-K kids, and while we were waiting for the parade to start, and for our part of the parade to get moving, the older kids and I started to make up our own words to songs between bursts of listening to the bagpipers near us. Then one of the little ones piped up with this, sung to the tune of Frere Jacques:
We've been waiting
We've been waiting
All Day Long
All Day Long
That's why we are singing
That's why we are singing
Waiting Songs
Waiting Songs
We've been waiting
We've been waiting
All Day Long
All Day Long
That's why we are singing
That's why we are singing
Waiting Songs
