Cinderella Farm


For days now my sweet girls have been singing some tune they so affectionately call, "Cinderella Farm." They twirl and do their little ballet moves and while one sings, the other dances. If one of them is not around then I'm supposed to sing...but I get it wrong everytime because frankly, I've never heard of the song called "Cinderella Farm"--have you? It goes something like this (to a random tune): "Cinderella on a farm. Cinderella has mean sii-ii-ii-sters. Cinderella loves her farm and sleeping beauty comes to visit her. "

I couldn't figure out where they got the Cinderella Farm theme. When I asked Lexie, she said "Moooooom! Don't you know--Cinderella has lots of animals that helped her so Cinderella must be a farm girl!" News to me--guess that changes everything...Cinderella apparently is a farm girl.

Last weekend we went to see the San Marcos Theater production of Cinderella and they did have a racoon and some pigs along with the mice, cat, and dog so thus the farm theme...duh Mom.

I'll have to catch them doing it on video and post it later.

Just got done catching up on your life for the past few weeks. There is too much to comment on. My heart is filled with emotion for you right now & what an incredible mom you are. You really are quite amazing. It's a good thing you have so many daughters to pass those good skills on to.

I agree with your cute little girls...Cinderella was a farm girl. It makes complete sense with the duets with the animals and all the hard labor...yeah, she had to have been a farm girl! Don't you love the exchanges you have with your children when they're young. Thanks for sharing!

I SO miss all the songs of the older Disney movies, so I'm so glad to hear that your girls have "found" another one! Sign me to learn the song!

Those two are so cute! I can't wait for Mattie to get to play with them again this summer. They'll have to show Mattie their routine!
