Jagen had to do a report about a country that featured some family history. So she picked Germany where my mom's mom came from when she was only 8 years old. I was frustrated about having to pull this report together, but it turned out to be so much fun. Jagen really enjoyed learning about her Great-Grandma, her history and life experiences. I (with some help from my brothers and sister) even taught her a song that my Grandma used to sing to us. She dressed up for the presentation and we even found some German cookies to share with the class. It was really cute and I wanted to share it with you all and especially dad, since he missed all the fun too.

I had to video the song for everyone to see and hear. I know there is probably not one German word that is correct, but she learned it exactly how I taught her, which is from memory by non-German speaking people (me and my siblings). Check this out. Brave little girl to sing in front of the whole class. (Oh...and turn up your sound.)
