Henry

Henry wants a pajama party every night, and tonight was no different. I was getting Pandora.com on the web and started chanting in some relatively vague, but familiar tune, "Let's get this party started", when I noticed that he was looking at me oddly. Like he was trying to put something together, or remember something. Then, he said, "No. I like it movin', movin'."

Then it was my turn to stare at him. Something in my head was being jogged. This sounded familiar. Not exactly right, but surely righter than what I was saying to the same tune. As I was lost in oblivion trying to recall something - anything - that likely would not be recalled, Henry informed me that he learned the song from the movie Madagascar - a movie I hadn't watched with him.

In no time we had the clip from the movie, and the song "I like to move it, move it" up on YouTube.
We watched and Henry looked at me and said, "That's how it goes, Mama."
