So, Tuesday morning after Easter I was getting ready for work and I could hear, through the baby monitor, Daphne waking up in her room. She was singing Mary had a Little Lamb. Then it sounded like she was singing Jesus Loves Me and Mary Had A Little Lamb at the same time. I went into her room and said, "What are you talking about Daph?" and she said, "There are 3 Marys!" and then she began singing, "Mary had a Little Lamb, Little Lamb, Little Lamb (singing in her own tune) and Jesus died and his body was in the tomb, and Mary Magalum found him, and Mary is in Isaac's class." Then, now speaking, " See? There's 3 Marys!" It was hysterical and impressive and darling all at the same time. I ran and got the video camera and tried to get her to do it again, but it wasn't quite the same the second time around. I just am so impressed with her grasping that much of the Easter Story at her tender age, at her connecting the 3 Marys she has heard of and then putting it all into a song! She is absolutely brilliant!
