It's a Jungle Out There

This afternoon Adisu told me there was something that he wanted to do. He told me that he didn't like how dirty the floor was (there had been play dough playing this morning) and he wanted to sweep the floor for me. I told him that if he really wanted to do something about it, mopping the floor would be better. And so he did. The whole floor! And then, as he narrated to Dr. Daddy later this evening, he lined the shoes up, and then picked up all the toys. And had fun doing it. As soon as Dr. Daddy's eyes and mine met we immediately started thinking perhaps we should change his name to Adrian.

It's a jungle out there
Disorder and confusion everywhere
No one seems to care
Well I do
Hey, who's in charge here?
It's a jungle out there
Poison in the very air we breathe
Do you know what's in the water that you drink?
Well I do, and it's amazing
People think I'm crazy, 'cause I worry all the time
If you paid attention, you'd be worried too
You better pay attention
Or this world we love so much might just kill you
I could be wrong now, but I don't think so!
'Cause there's a jungle out there.
It's a jungle out there.
-Randy Newman
