Grandma's Song

Awhile ago, my mom made up a song that she sings to her grandkids before bed anytime they are spending the night at her house.

Basically, the lyrics go something like this:

Grandpa loves ____ (fill in the grandchild's name)
Grandma loves ____
Mama loves _____
Papa loves _____
Nathan loves _____
Rachel loves _____
Kaine loves _____
Halle loves _____
etc.

You get the picture.

All of the kids LOVE for her to sing them this song.

Well this past week, I walked into our living room, and Ivy was rocking her baby (probably much like Grandma Jan rocks her) and attempting to sing "Grandma's song" to her.

From what I can tell, these are the lyrics Ivy sings in this video (she leaves out the word "loves" on each line):

Papa (loves) Ivy
Papa (loves) Ivy
Papa (loves) Ivy
Halle (loves) Ivy
[some name that I can't understand] (loves) Ivy
Layla (loves) Halle

*And one sidenote about the video...I love how at the beginning Ivy just smiles at me for about 15 seconds. She thought I was taking her picture with a regular camera, so she was posing for it. :)



So so cute. 

Mom, keep singing them your song :) They obviously love it!

She loves her babies. Even though I might be a little bias, she is one smart kid.
