"Dumb Clowns!"

So Jason & I were both feeling guilty yesterday since Henry gets left out a lot. I remember playing with Hannah and Jack a lot more. Henry must have asked me 5 times to play basketball with him and somehow come the end of the day, I still hadn't played. So we decided to take Henry for a walk with us. Just me, Jason & Henry. He brought his binoculars and we talked about different birds. It was really nice to spend time with just him and he has SO MUCH to say!! So out of the blue, he says, "I think Dumb Clowns would be a really great name for a song". Hmmm...how would that song go? We got a 20 minute live rock performance the rest of the walk home! You have to imagine that any other words are sung a little quieter..."they hang around with you all day...they scare little 2 year olds...I love you baby..." then there's a giant air guitar action that has Henry down on one knee on the side walk and "DUMB CLOWNS!"

I enjoyed this post like you couldn't believe! I imagined the lyrics set to a thrashing metal tune, love Henry's style.

Oh man, I can't wait to hear this song! I think it has definite college radio potential. Tell Henry to be ready for a recording session when I get down there.
