And she can sing!

Animalia has spent the last few nights singing before bed. I believe it's a natural extension of her love of musica and dancing. She'll sing about anything and everything. She even takes requests. Her songs entail one subject, announced before the song begins, one descriptive lyric of said subject, and a finale which is usually just clapping for herself and saying YAY! Example: "Aya sing about hands. Haaaands, hands, haaaaands, hands, shaking hands, hands, hands, haaaaaaannnnddsss!" Clapping. "YAY!"

She also takes requests. Sing a song about Daht. "Aya sing a song about Daht. Daaahhhtt, daht, daaaa---eeeeee, daht, Dadeeee Poooooo! Yay!"

Her singing sounds hysterical and hilarious and commences, methinks, as a diversionary tactic to avoid going to sleep. This, however, seems to backfire, as she expends so much energy singing a good five or six songs in a pitch previously unkown to man that she seems perfectly happy to fall asleep a short time later with a stern "Es tiempo de hacer mimis."
