I have three kids, 3, 5, and 6 and I sometimes sing loudly in the house. I sing "I love myself" and "I am the best, I am great" and they aren't quite sure how to react. They sense it's something I should not be doing, so they each get worked up and react a little differently. The 3 year old starts screaming "NOOOOOO!" the 5 year old starts singing back, trying to get louder than me, with "Daddy is not great, daddy is not good" and my 6 year old starts trying to do karate moves on me to teach me some sort of lesson. I do this often when they least expect it and it drives them nuts.

It's a form of positive affirmation and they'll learn to copy you!

Singing crazy stuff for the annoyance and delight of your children is a great pastime. I am notorious for singing silly songs, usually making of dumb verses to popular music or creating my own songs about some situation my son gets himself into, hahaha. It is best to sing such songs in public places for maximum impact, ha-ha, especially in front of girls your son likes. (Not really, wouldn't do that! Must respect boundaries.) Fun fathers and mothers are PRICELESS. Imagine all the wonderful stories they will tell when they are older! More importantly, you are modeling both silly-daddy and firm father behavior, assuring your sons will be balanced and entertaining fathers. I loved it when my very straight-laced conservative engineer father was silly! Especially when the Tickle Bug came to visit. Last night, my son and I were listening to the radio whilst driving home from Albuquerque. You know that song "You're Beautiful"? Well, we simply HAD to destroy it for our own entertainment, making up ridiculous verses to make us laugh. "Your butt is full! Your butt is full! Your butt is full of poo! I saw you there...on your potty chair...and I don't know what to do...'cause your butt is full poo." "You're gonna hurl! You're gonna hurl! You're gonna hurl pea soup! It's all gone bad...and it makes you mad...and I don't know what to do...'cause you're gonna hurl pea soup!" HAHAHAHA. Ten year-old boys LOVE potty humor. Apparently, so do some thirty-nine year old women.

Thank the heavens they are out of the "rolling down the hill and hitting dog poop" stage. Because you dont ever notice it until you brush the leaves off them.
