Colinism

Colin loves to hold Juliette.  He stares into her eyes and coos at her and chats with her.  And he always has a song to sing.

Yesterday I heard his sweet little voice singing softly as he smiled on her.  Such a sweet lullaby, I thought.  I listened closely to see if I could tell what he was singing, and heard these lyrics from a song I taught the boys a couple days back:

(to the tune of "Battle Hymn of the Republic)

He jumped from 40,000 feet and forgot to pull the cord
He jumped from 40,000 feet and forgot to pull the cord
He jumped from 40,000 feet and forgot to pull the cord
And he ain't gonna jump no more!


Gory, gory what a heck of a way to die
Gory, gory what a heck of a way to die
Gory, gory what a heck of a way to die
And he ain't gonna jump no more!

Gotta love those good old camp songs!  So indicative of life with a pile of older brothers.
