In preparation for Sara’s birthday today, the kids and I put together a little video, a la Sara’s Father’s Day video from last year. Though I am very partial to that video, and think that it is basically the best thing ever, the kids were *very* excited to show this one to Sara. They put in a lot effort, from coming up with the words, to recording the audio, to deciding which videos to include, to just keeping it quiet from Sara for so long.

So anyway, enjoy the fruits of their labor, and wish a happy birthday to a very excellent mommy!

It might seem crazy, what I’m ’bout to say,
Mommy she’s here, can’t get a break,
She works so hard, she might get an ache,
But if you’re feeling bad, she’ll kiss your face.

Here’s why:

Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that mommy’s a good cook
Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that mommy reads good books
Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that mommy plans good trips
Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that you like what mommy knits

Love my mom
I always
Love my mom
My love is too high
Love my mom
I always
Love my mom
I hope she never dies
Love my mom
I always
Love my mom
I love her so much
Love my mom
I always
Love my mom

I said, ’cause she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that mommy’s a good cook
Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that mommy reads good books
Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that mommy plans good trips
Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that you like what mommy knits

Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that mommy’s a good cook
Because she’s mommy…
Clap along if you think that mommy reads good books
