Two weeks ago I bought Lily a Goodnight Moon dvd. It's filled with stories and songs about bedtime & interviews with little kids about dreams and night time at their house. She absolutely loves it. One part of the dvd is the illustrated story (narrated by Susan Sarandon, of course) of Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown. Lily's watched this several times (occasionally at nap and before bed) but I never really figured she was paying to much attention to the story. I knew she liked the music because she runs around singing "Dream Dream Dream" by the Everly Brothers all the time now.
Well, I was wrong. Last night we took her to Toys R Us so we could get some general gift ideas for her upcoming 3rd birthday. I found Goodnight Moon in the book section and showed Lily. Who then proceeded to open the book and "read" it to me almost exactly. You could have knocked me over with a feather! It was the cutest thing in the world.
So Goodnight Moon is definitely on her birthday list.
