Happy Birthday, Bear!

In what is quickly becoming an annual tradition, Lloyd Miller of the great kindie band The Deedle Deedle Dees has recorded not one, but a pair of Happy Birthday YouTube videos for my oldest daughter who became no-longer-seven today.

The Bear turned 8, specifically, at 12:14pm (ET) this afternoon. I realized last night that this means she is 5 years away from 13, and nearly threw up in my mouth.

In happier news, here is Lloyd Van Dyke singing “Julie, It’s Your Birthday”:

And Lloyd Waits growling the same song:

Thanks, Lloyd for once again making us laugh and sing along in strange voices.

*Philly-area folks, be sure to join me at the free Deedle Deedle Dees show next Saturday 3/10 at The Kimmel Center!
