Where is Thumbkin, Where is Thumbkin?

Today, I want to share some of our favorite nursery rhymes & songs. I've been "singing" these to Gabriel a lot lately since we've been in the hospital. We've been rocking in our chair singing anything and everything that I can think of. Gabe just smiles and laughs when we do this. His favorite!? Where is Thumbkin! So, here they are...this is what we sing everyday! 



  1. Where is thumbkin, where is thumbkin? Here I am, Here I am! How are you today sir? Very well I thank you. Run away. Run away. Where is pointer, where is pointer? Here I am, Here I am! How are you today sir? Very well I thank you. Run away. Run away. Where is tall man, where is tall man? Here I am, Here I am! How are you today sir? Very well I thank you. Run away. Run away. Where is ring-man, where is ring-man? Here I am, Here I am! How are you today sir? Very well I thank you. Run away. Run away. Where is pinkie, where is pinkie? Here I am, Here I am! How are you today sir? Very well I thank you. Run away. Run away. Where is the family, where is the family? Here we are, Here we are! How are you today? Very well we thank you. Run away. Run away.
