  • The "Everybody Loves You" Song

    by Mama Platypus

    Yesterday was our closing! Yay! I took the day off.

    So yesterday morning the fat one decides to wake up at 5:40. Fine. Mommy's up Tubs. So I feed her and she houses that sh*t. Yay! I always try to cheer her when she finishes a bottle so she'll do it more often. Sometimes she doesn't finish and she just keeps smiling with the milk oozing out of the side of her mouth and I'm like "NO! It's not play time! You have to finish it." And she'll just keep smiling and since I'm a sucka for that smile I give up. Punk ass. So usually after she has her morning bottle I'll play with her for a bit and then pop her in her swing where she'll play till we have to leave for daycare and usually she'll fall asleep in it for her morning nap. Yesterday morning I put her ass in and she started whining. *sigh* So I took her out and I laid her next to the hubs so she'll go to sleep with him. I think 20 minutes later she was still fussing. So I went, lay down next to her, and started singing my "Everybody Loves You" song as I patted her chest. What is the "Everybody Loves You" song you ask? You just name everyone that loves her. World Leaders, athletes, it don't matter that they never met her. Yesterday morning's version went like this... 

    Mommy loves you.
    Daddy loves you.
    Halmohni (grandma) loves you.
    Halmeh loves you.
    Sarah eemoh (auntie) loves you.
    Vietcong eemoh loves you.
    Nancy eemoh loves you.
    Esther eemoh loves you.
    Josie unnie (big sister) loves you.
    Hannah unnie loves you.
    Isabella unnie loves you.
    Owen oppa (big brother) loves you.
    Ellis oppa loves you.
    Mikhail Gorbachov loves you.
    President Bush loves you.
    Obama loves you.

    The hubs woke up here and said "What the hell are you singing to her?" "My Everybody Loves You song." Then he went back to sleep so I continued my misson...

    Oprah Winfrey loves you.
    Sarah Jessica Parker loves you.
    Shaquille O'Neil loves you.
    Madonna loves you.
    Brett Favre loves you.
    New Kids On The Block loves you...

    ...then she was OH YOU TEE out! Woohoo! She loves this song. Mommy's awsome.

    They're friends now despite their previous fight

    Do you ever make up songs or lullabies for your kids?  What are some of your lyrics?
