Don't fence me in -

As apartment dwellers in a big city, we often go to local parks in search of sunshine and wide open space. London loves to run and he lights up like a lightbulb when we talk him on a walk. Most of the times we put his shoes on him, to go to church or daycare or the grocery store, his first question is "Walk?" The next three pictures are some of my favorites from a recent picnic at Cesar Chavez Park and Totland.




Matt and I have been making up songs since London was born. I thought I'd share some of our musical talents with you now. Sing the following lyrics to the tune of "Oh when the saints go marching in." It is the tune we sing sometimes when London doesn't want to cooperate and we decide to celebrate his independent spirit.

Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in
Don't make me eat
When I'm not hungry
Don't fence me in
Don't tell me what to do

vs. 2
Don't make me sleep
When I'm not tired

vs. 3
Don't make me sit down
When I want to run wild
