Every Tuesday and Sunday I babysit two adorable little girls named Liberty and Trinity. Liberty is about three and potty training, and Trinity just turned two. I ALWAYS confuse their names because they sound the same!
Anyhow, the girls are in love with Peppa Pig. Shes a British pig that dosen't really teach the girls anything but social skills, which I suppose is a good thing. Well, they have this Peppa Pig DVD that they watch every night I babysit them before bedtime. Last night I had put the older one, Libby, to sleep and I was waiting for the little one, Trinity, to fall asleep as well. I had put Libby in bed and told Trinny to be quiet because her sister was sleeping, and of coarse I put in the Peppa Pig DVD on for her to watch in their room.
I went and sat out in the living room with the TV on the Jewelry channel (don't judge me) and I waited until the whispers of baby talk subsided, but they never did. After about ten more minutes of hearing Trinity talking to herself, I went in to her room. She was still wide-eyed and standing in front of the TV. But she wasn't just standing, she was dancing. Peppa's theme song was playing on repeat because I never pushed play on the DVD and she was just wiggling her little hips to it. It was the cutest thing ever. I didn't even ask her to go to sleep, I just pushed play on the DVD and walked out. Other nights I probably would have told her to go to sleep, but her dancing was just so cute that I couldn't.
She can understand the words of the theme song because it's simply "Peppa pig. Oink Oink...Peppa Pig. Oink Oink..." and so on. Trinny was feeling the power of the music that night and it got her out of going to bed.
