A Bit Peculiar

At a family gathering last spring, we were in my aunt's living room chatting while kids ran all over the house playing. At one point, Rebekah ran through with some toy (maybe Thing 1?), and my cousin laughingly made the comment that she is definitely Mikey's kid, because she can often be found with the oddest things.

A few months later, again at my aunt's house, this time during a white elephant gift exchange, someone gave Beck a present to open, and another attachment was formed:

There were two of them then, and she wouldn't put them down for days. "These are my guys, mommy. They're sad."

Since then, I've been noticing what odd tastes she has. Don't get me wrong, she loves a good dolly as much, or maybe more, than the next girl, but also in her toy box of favorites is a fake dog poop, 'Lil Bill (as in Cosby) and Burger King wristbands.

So I thought I'd share some of her favorite Youtube videos. This is what she asks for if she finds her way onto our laps at the computer:



She calls this "Swee-chee." We think it's from this Japanese kids show. Why don't we have quality programming like this?



Don't ask. Here's the original, which is great.
