This morning on the way to Sue's house, the kids were listening to Fox and the Hound. Towards the end, Hanna starting singing "All board! Let's go" from Dumbo. She does that often lately. But as she started singing, the song "When You're The Best of Friends" at the end of the FATH starting playing, and she sort of starting singing the Dumbo song to the tune of the FATH song. Ha.
I cleared out some room in the basement so the kids could play with their plastic Fisher Price train set. It does hang together too well on the carpet, so the flat cement down there is a better place. They've had fun with that. I've gone down there with them and just messed around with the stereo while they're playing. I played some CDs I don't think I've played since we've moved here. One I played was a banjo/bluegrass cd. When I started it, and the banjo started plinking, John started laughing and said "what is that funny music?" hee.
John had a bit of a tough time in sunday school yesterday. Was fine at first, but later they went out into a lobby area to practice their songs for next week's program. It's hard for John to be in less structured environments like that, where physically it is not as closed in, and with all that added stimulation of music, bells, etc... So, he didn't stand quietly in his spot, and later was apparently tackling kids back in the room. I don't know exactly how to help him through that. He does need practice in these situations, but other kids around him don't like that. He's been like that lately, not sure if he is going through some phase or not. He says he is scared to go to sunday school, or to Sue's house, so not sure what he means. He says he'd rather stay home, so not sure if he is just saying it's stressful for him.
