Can't Touch this!

For my birthday my sister sent me one of those fancy cards that plays music when you open it. I had been proudly displaying it on my mantel for over a month now and decided that Little K could have it. I showed her that when you open it, it plays. And when you close it, it stops and then left her to it. A few minutes later, I come in and she was busy with it.... open, close, open, close. Then she set it on the floor open and blaring "Can't touch this" and started dancing. Stomping her feet and clapping her hands. Open, close, open, close... all morning long ... "Can't touch this".

The next day, in her slightly unsupervised crawling around the family room, she finds a fathers day card. She opens it, then closes it, opens it again and then started to cry. She was so upset that it didn't play music. She crawled over to me and handed me the card and clapped her hands as if asking me to turn on the music. I quickly found the "Can't touch this" card and she went back to dancing to the awesome beats of M.C Hammer. If she didn't make me smile everytime she bounces to the beat, I would be going crazy listening to the first 10 seconds of the song over and over.

Parker loved the "McDreamy" card that I got mom after her surgery. It played the Grey's Anatomy song when you opened it. He carried that thing around all the time and would laugh every time the song came on.
