Rambunctious

If it isn't clear by now, C-bao is into singing and dancing. Any song will do - she will happily join in even if she's never heard it before. And if she doesn't have a tune on hand, she's happy to make something up (as she does in the video below), and choreograph it herself to boot.

As to what she is actually saying in the video below? No one will ever know.

Stomp

Here comes C-bao, singing and stomping her way down the hall. The song? From the musical introduction to a Chinese storybook:

"來，來，來，小朋友, 快來一起來享受，姐姐為你說故事喲，快來快來小朋友!"

"Come, little children, let's enjoy together! Sister will tell you a story. Come little children!"

Let It Go - Cover

C-bao's sister K-bao recently saw the new Disney film Frozen, and since then has insisted on pulling up the now-iconic and Oscar-winning song Let It Go on YouTube at all hours so she can sing along at the top of her lungs.

Not to be left out, C-bao has learned not only the names of the key characters ("Elsa! Elsa! Anna! Anna!" she will go around the house shouting), but a few select parts of the song which she will belt out much too enthusiastically at select opportune moments. Below is representative.

Slow Twirl

Here is C-bao enjoying a little music that her Aunt Catherine and Uncle James recorded, as posted previously here.

She's heard the song enough times now to chime in on the last word of each line.

When asked to dance these days C-bao generally breaks into her patented 2-Way Slow Twirl  (where she spins first counter-clockwise and then clockwise), as can be seen beginning at 0:55. Of course, she then gets dizzy enough to need to be held afterwards.

To 四個乖小孩

C-bao's talented Aunt and Uncle (Shu-Shu and Xiao Goo-Goo) penned, sang and recorded a brief piece of music for their 4 nieces (including C-bao's cousins Elizabeth and Grace as well as C-bao and her sister K-bao) one recent afternoon.

Music: To 四個乖小孩

Lyrics:

寶貝妳要做個乖小孩

Watch the tone when you are asking why

做個討神喜悅乖女孩

Our love will always be with you

永不分開

寶貝乖乖跌倒不用怕

It hurts a bit but you will grow a lot

別因妳可愛就不用聽話

Learn to love and trust in God

Your life will be

Right where it should be

記得永遠守護妳的心

A message C-bao's parents hope she internalizes early in life!
