My daughter, being much more sensible, merely wants a unicorn.
Hippo is my favorite non-faith based Christmas song by far. It catches all the whimsy, imagination, and "logic" of children. This kid has a solution for everything: the door, the bath, feeding... She's very driven to achieve her goal too.
It also catches the exasperation of parenting a creative, bright, child. These kids have their "facts" down, and are goal driven, and convinced they on how right they are, all the time. It's just their reality is a little different than ours, because if they can envision it, why can't it be real?
Hanging on to our hippos gets harder as we get older. Fortunately, I got mine for Christmas a couple years ago...thanks to Kohls, a husband with a sense of humor, & caring kids.
