Friday Feb 16

Elijah has been drawing horses. I can’t tell they are horses, but he says “whorshe!” or “weeo-weeo-weeo-weeo” which is his version of a whinny. Kris said he drew her, copying my cartoon style of sharp lines for long black hair. Neat! Rowan wanted me to read stories this morning, and I didn’t want to because I was composing new chords for the “I’m a little teapot song.” To give it a modern feel I did it with these chords:


I'm a little tea pot, short and stout
E E/G# C#mi B
Here is my handle, here is my spout.
A E C B7
When I get all steamed up, hear me shout.
E G#7 C#mi B
Tip! me over and pour me out.
A C B E


Later I came and read “Teeth are not for Biting,” and Kris read “Diggers,” an old favorite.
