Rainbows on... dump trucks?

Henry, 

You love when I make up songs for you. Your favorite is when I sing the "Raindrops on Roses" song from Sound of Music - but with lyrics about your favorite things. Such as:

Riding the 4-wheeler, jumping in the river
Making new roads on the beach with Michael
Jumping in puddles and hugs from Jayson
Riding your bike and reading on the lawn.

Watching a movie with popcorn and daddy
Binnoculars and snowballs and marbles and ants
Finding a spider and holding mom's hand
Visiting cousins and the ikea fan.

Rocking with daddy, some pats in your sky bed
Making a new track and racing your trains
Reading about pipes and Thomas and buildings
Hotwheels and picnics and tree climbing.

And the chorus:

When you have to put your cream on
When it's time to go to bed
When you're feeling sad
Henry can think of his favorite things
and then he won't feel so bad.

It is fun to see your face light up as you remember so many wonderful things in your life. And it all works out as seeing you happy is one of my favorite things.

xo,
Mama
