Roly Poly Hadalulah

Okay so Emmalyn has always been a huge fan of the Hymn book from a very young age and loves to sing in church. Today we sang the Battle Hymn of the Republic for our opening song in Sacrament meeting and she sang it the entire day. We meet at 9am. Only her version of the chorus goes...roly poly hadalulah instead of glory, glory hallelujah. It's been such great entertainment all day! We've been having her perform for everyone.
She is at that age where she actually will get songs stuck in her head. Usually, they are songs from Backyardigans but every once in while something else will get stuck. Oh, last week she came home from church singing Mary had a little Lamb. We've never even sung that with her. She must have learned it in nursery.

Funny little story...

So we were driving in the car the other day and Emmalyn spotted the moon out the window. It was about 4:00 in the afternoon so not quite dark yet. Emma loves the moon, she always points it out. So we were talking about it and then she says, "Mommy, moon on?" I was a little confused at first and I asked her a couple of times what she was saying because of course she doesn't say it as clearly as I spell it. Finally it hit me. She wanted the moon to turn on. I guess it's like a light bulb to her so we told her it would come on when it got dark. And sure enough when it was dark later we pointed it out and she was very pleased that the moon turned on.
