i love you...

Today I must have watched 4 hours of Barney. That's right, Barney. The big purple dinosaur. Portia is obsessed with Barney. She wakes up each morning asking for "Ba-ee," and doesn't stop asking until bed. She sings all day, and when she hears that theme song, her little legs start moving faster than when she hears "Single Ladies" (yes, she is also a Beyonce fan).

The problem is that Brandon and I may go crazy. We've been singing "Castle so High, Up in the Sky" and "Yes! Let's Take Care of our Pets" for days. Its a little embarrassing.

I tried to introduce other cartoons, like Kipper the Dog and Dora, but she just screams "BA-EE!!" Even Sesame Street has lost its appeal. If it were up to Portia, Barney would be played 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

I suppose she'll eventually outgrow this purple phase, in a few years.

Until then,

If aaaaall the raindrops were lemon drops and gumdrops, ooooh what a world this would beeee!
