I am the Lorax, I speak for the trees!

After reading Dr. Seuss' "The Lorax" about 5,259,973 times, Melly loves to say "I am the Lorax, I speak for the trees". OK, that's the translation. What you actually hear is "I Lowax, I speak trees!" As if that isn't cute enough, she will only say it while standing on a tree stump with both arms up in the air. We all went to the local ball field, where there are literally 6 (at least) ball fields and 1 really cool BMX track. We like to go and watch some baseball, and see if there are any bikes racing. Lucky for us, by one of the fields there is a section where they must have cut down a dozen trees, leaving their stumps just waiting for our little Lorax to come along. So as all the proud parents watch their little ones throw strikes and catch fly balls, our Melly is running around climbing on the tree stumps with arms up screaming like she's the Lorax.
