Doh!
Bwah ha ha ha ha ha ha! I've found it! A new weapon to add to my meager arsenal of parenting tools.
Guess who's afraid of Hula Homer? That's right. The Governor. Mr. Stubborn. Mr. I-Won't-Leave-Mom's-Geraniums-Alone-Even-After-Repeated-Time-Outs-and-Various-Other-Failed-Methods-of-Discipline.
I discovered that Hula Homer scares The Governor. Especially when Homer sings "Tiny Bubbles." (He is not intimidated, however, when Homer burps.) But get the Don Ho going...and The Gov holds his hands up in the air -- the international sign of surrender, or, if you're a tot, the international sign for "pick me up right now."
Can't get enough of the dirt in Mom's flower pots? Why look who's peeking at us from behind the geraniums. Let's have Hula Homer sing us a little song, shall we?
Is it wrong to get so much joy out of this? Bwah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
