They spilled bubbles on the kitchen floor. So, they got the scrubby brush for the dishes and a rag and started mopping it up. Then Claire started singing, to the tune of "London Bridge,"
"Soap and water do the job
do the job
do the job
Soap and water do the job
Ol' Ham Lincoln!"
Charlotte and Gabe sang along until, eventually, Charlotte tried to suggest that our revered president's name was actually Abraham. Nope. Claire brushed off such a silly suggestion and went back to ol' Ham.
There is no telling at all - at all - how she came up with that closing phrase on the spot.
Precious. Plus, free mopping.

I love hearing what kids come up with. Love those happy parenting moments!
Very nice!
Too funny! Kids come up with the strangest things.
Oh, and I love Gabes cake - you are very talented!
If I spilled bubbles in the kitchen, I would have made a slip and slide out of the floor. Did it with Crystal once to clean the bathroom floor in nanas house, no joke. ;)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE claire!! Have fun tomorrow. Wish we were there! Love you

What an amazing song for Claire to come up with! And I shall now call him "Ol' Ham Lincoln".
Ol' Ham Lincoln is my favorite president.
