I've posted stories of my little browncoat before, but I just had another one to add. And this thread title just seemed to fit better.

Hubby took my five year old shopping for T-Ball equipment on Saturday in my car. My son knows exactly which CDs are in my player even better than I do.

They sat in the car for a 45 minute drive and hubby came home that night complaining.

"He made me play that stupid 'Take my Land' song about fifty million times. It's ALL we listened to for the entire drive!!!!"

In walks my five year old, "Take my love, take my land, take me where I cannot stand...You can't take the sky from me..."

Yay for 'Little Browncoats'!

Heh. My 3-year-old loves the fruity oaty bar commercial. Every night she'll come over to me when I'm on the computer and demand "poopybars... pease!"

She also knows Hero of Canton and the theme song...

Some of you heard about my trip to the principal's office courtesy of my 8 year old Browncoat son.
Seems he called one of his classmates a "backbirth" and told both the classmate AND the principal,
"My mom can kill you with her brain."

Um. The principal was not a Browncoat and needless to say, not amused!

"Do not go gentle into that good night....
Rage, rage against the dying of the light. . ."
--Dylan Thomas

Though my soul may set in darkness
It will rise in perfect light.
I have loved the stars too fondly
To be fearful of the night.

I sing the song to my baby when I put him down for the night, and he always does a double take when he hears it on the DVD.

I've even written a few extra verses to stretch it out on nights he doesn't go down right away. They're not good, but he seems to like them.

Take my faith,
Kill my belief,
Make me live just like a thief
True to mine I'll still be
You can't take the sky from me.

Take my memories,
Taint my past,
Leave me nothing that will last,
It's the future that I see,
You can't take the sky from me.
