Rockin' Egg

Remember as a kid when someone would shout, "Last one there is a ROTTEN EGG!" and everyone under 4 ft tall would take off running as fast as they could? Well, I tried to introduce this to the girls, making things like getting upstairs for a bath and getting ready for the day go a little faster. They scream it every night on the way to bath and bed. Only they both just sit on the steps waiting for the other to go. Seems they both want to be the "rotten egg???". Ewww! Who wants to be a rotten egg?

Well, apparently nobody, because I figured out that's not what they're saying. For Grace and Maggie, it's "last one up is a ROCKIN' EGG!" And, for those who know their Daddy and his love of rock and roll and how he's passed that along to these girls, a "ROCKIN' EGG" sounds like the coolest thing ever to these 4 year olds! And they both want to be one. So, "last one up is a ROCKIN' EGG" gets me nowhere fast!

Rock on, little girls. Rock on.
