Where is Thumbkin?

We love, love, love our Thursday library class. Hamilton's been enrolled in most sessions since he was 6 months-old so all of the librarians (and the security guard) know him by name. Veronica's actually got him beat, though. She's been sitting in on his sessions since shortly after she was born. The librarians are so great to include her (and other siblings) in the activities, and she is happy to clap and shake away with everyone else.

The librarians rotate the responsibility of leading each 6-week session, and each of them brings their own flavor to the class. Miss Katie is leading this session, and she is great! This round, she is bringing back some of the classics, including "Where is Thumbkin?" Hamilton was a little thrown at first that so many people knew this song that he had never heard of (Gasp! It's true--I didn't include this one in our repertoire at home.)

Well, we took care of that at Veronica's next nap. And Hamilton's been belting this out ever since.
