20 Months Old

This week Li turned 20 months old.  It’s also our last week of time off together, I go back to work Monday.   Years ago I heard Nanci Griffith sing a song which has been on my mind for the last two weeks, I guess because we are moving on to the next phase. 

Turn Around

Where are you goin’ my little one, little one?
Where are you goin’ my baby my own?
Turn around and you’re two
Turn around and you’re four
Turn around and you’re a young girl
Going out the door

Chorus
Turn around
Turn around
Turn around and you’re a young girl
Going out of the door
(Turn around and you’re a young wife
With babes of your own)

Where are you goin’ my little one, little one?
Little dirndles and petticoats, where have you gone?
Turn around and you’re tiny
Turn around and you’re grown
Turn around and you’re a young wife
With babes of your own

Chorus

Where are you goin’ my little one, little one?
Where are you goin’ my baby my own.

Of course when I turn around I see the “Nutty Professor”!
