Ahh-Nay-Noo-Nah



Lately Lina’s songs have taken on a new form.  Where it used to be mostly just sounds or bits of songs she already knows, she now sings what she’s doing.  She used to just stand up and perform, now she has added a whole new level of theatrics.  If it’s a sad song, a hand will be on her forehead, or she lean against the wall for a moment.  She’ll look up to the sky instead of at your face to show you that she is truly in the moment.

“I a princess.
I don’t have a crown.
I cried.
Ahh-Nay-Noo-Nah
Ahh-Nay-Noo-Nah
Ahh-Nay-Noo-Nah
Ahh-Nay-Noo-Nah”

It took me awhile to figure out that Ahh-Nay-Noo-Nah was actually Hallelujah.  And then it took me even longer to figure out where she learned that from, I mean we’re talking days.  I had it narrowed down to a pop song we’ve been hearing on the radio, and then my sister reminded me that the song is in Shrek and she does like to watch Fiona.
