    I do that too. Mustapha, my very own corrupted Arabic poet is Abu-3ala2 il-Ma3ar. Note: there's no i at the end.

      I played them heavy metal. Hannah used to love dancing to Ozzy. She prefers Iron Maiden nowadays, but Ozzy still gets a look in. I confess to being caught singing the odd wiggles song, tho.

      Yeah, there was talk of them coming to Jordan and if they did, I would have had to take Sam, my only consolation is seeing his smile though :) Sam LOVES listening to Aerosmith and Judas Priest but cannot stand Manson. I can't play any musical instruments other than the musical triangle which is sad.

        Yeah, Hannah likes British Steel. I've not really played her Aerosmith.

          I have an uncle who, when I was a little older than your son, would sing 'corrupted' versions of nursery rhymes to me. My mother used to scold him but I loved them. The only one I can remember is his version of "Mary Had a Little Lamb" Mary had a little lamb The butcher chopped it dead And now that lamb it goes to school Between two chunks of bread. I used to laugh my little cotton socks off. He was crap at the Arabic ones though. ;P

            The one I knew went like this: "Happy Birthday to you, I went to the zoo, I saw a fat monkey, exactly like you!" But I prefer your version! :-D

              You're doing some late night coding and singing, with passion, the songs that your 2 year old loves. Examples include the "I love you song", "incy wincy spider", "Old McDonald had a farm" and a whole slew of Arabic songs for kids. I caught myself when I had already sung most of them.

                          At one point, when my daughter was a toddler, it required four repetitions of Itsy-Bitsy Spider and four of The Barney Song (both verses) before she would go to bed. I remember being so tired I couldn't see straight, and singing those over and over again. She leaves for college in less than a week. God, I miss that :((.

                            I sympathize with ya...it's a great time in life. But there will be other memories to be made as good with the young lady that she has grown into. Good luck, Mike
