I like to Move it Move it...

We are laughing at the innate need that the twins have, especially Andrew, to dance when any music is playing. He can be doing anything, such as putting the smack down on Daddy, and as soon as music starts he stops, and his bum starts. The dancing varies from standing with knees apart and hips circling or the sitting wiggling. But their favorite thing- ever- is to have Daddy's ipod earphones. They share so each of them only have one and they will sit there and dance to any song that happens to pop up. We get quite a kick out of it.
Jack is a music lover too. Last night at family night he came up with all of our songs. He named them off using his fingers. 1st- the song about the hippo, giraffe, lion and zebra, 2ND- the prophet song, 3rd- the follow the prophet song, 4Th- the snowman song (with alternate hand signs) and 5Th- the boy who plays with matches (pronounced Maatches.) Since we didn't know some of these songs Jack had to lead us. It was a job he really enjoyed. We couldn't sit and sing we had to get up and march around the house as we sang, "Once there was a hippo, giraffe, and lion and zebra. (repeated until he felt we sang enough and had to sit down.) Then it was up again for two rounds of "follow the prophet" with our own lyrics. Such as Nephi was a prophet sent to get the plates from the wicked Laban inside the city gates. His brothers didn't want to, but he said he would so he did it and got them back to something something. Follow the prophet...
The boy who plays with matches was especially interesting to listen too. We were wondering how that one was going to play out. Mostly a boy played with matches. (Interestingly enough that was the only one we weren't ordered to sing while marching around the house.) And when we did start singing The wiseman song without his permission he got very hurt and was moved to almost tears all the while saying, "That's enough. We're not singing that right now. We're going to sing the snowman song. THAT'S ENOUGH!" We tried to explain that we were singing it because it was his brothers turn to lead a song, but that did little. All was set to right when we sang the snowman song, however. Then we told him he was very talented and he is now in charge of singing time during all family nights.
