MOO!

My youngest son learned several songs as part of his Kindergarten Graduation. Three of them were hymns and praise songs and one was this silly little diddy that has become our official family car song. It. Is. H-I-L-A-R-I-O-U-S!!! (Wish you could hear the tune and hick accent to get the full effect!) So cute. We couldn't believe he was actually able to keep it a secret from us for those few weeks of practice. We literally sing it all the time now and I can guarantee it will be wafting out the windows of our roadtrip this weekend.

BESSIE THE HEIFER

Bessie, the Heifer (Moo!)

Queen of all the cows

She gives more milk than

Any cow around

In the morning she gets pasturized

In the evening gets homogonized

Bessie the Heifer (Moo!)

Queen of all the cows!

Took her to the country fair

Tried to win a prize

She looked mad and nervous

I could see it in her eyes

When it came to milkin'

All I got was cottage cheese

Bessie the Heifer (Moo!)

Queen of all the cows

........EVERYBODY! Bessie the Heifer (Moo!).............

On another note, I want to say THANK YOU to Aaron and Matt from our church for spending this Memorial Day Weekend (and many other nights and days) in harm's way to protect our freedoms. Because you are away from your families this holiday, we will be enjoying ours in peace and safety from foreign enemies. You guys are my kids' heroes! (Even more than before.)

Thanks too, to all of you Blogger friends I've "met" who have served or who are spending your holiday without a special loved one who is serving now. There are several of you. And especially, thank you to ANYONE reading this who will spend this weekend visiting a grave containing a coffin that was once covered in red, white, and blue. It's nothing small or forgotten and my family appreciates you and them so very much!!!
