About 2 weeks ago my daughter asked me to teach her The America Song, (aka The Star-Spangled Banner.)
When your kid wants to learn The America Song, you freaking teach them The America Song.
So, for 2 weeks straight, I have been singing it to her. Every morning. Every evening. Every car ride to school. Every car ride from school.
She finally started to get the hang out of and asked me to "please not sing it with her anymore!" because "SHE KNOWS IT NOW SO STOP SINGING IT, MOM."
And while I am very proud that my 5 year old (sort of. Almost. Kind of) knows The Star-Spangled Banner, I am maybe going to lose my mind if she doesn't stop singing it EVERY MINUTE OF THE DAY THAT SHE IS AWAKE.
She's supposed to be taking a nap right now, but guess what's she's doing?
SERIOUSLY! GUESS!
As annoying as it can be after hearing it for the 800th time in a single day, it really is the most precious thing in my life right now and I am very proud of her.
Here she is, singing it 5 minutes after she woke up this morning. Enjoy.








Ah how cute it that?! And she did a very good job.
