Note: Does Not Respond Well to Hokey Pokey


Or maybe it was just that she didn't get a long enough nap.

that's hilarious. i love how she just gives up and goes to the rocking horse. was this at gymboree?

Honestly, that was overwhelming for me, too!

Heidi is just an independent thinker. No group dances for her. I mean, the hokey pokey does look pretty goofy, and she's just cool enough to know it already. Hilarious video!

i am with haley - Heidi is just so far above the hokey!

Heidi was thinking, "STOP THE MADNESS!" The music was loud and the adults looked funny! (especially if you are a little person looking up!)

This demonstrates the Calvinistic Covenant child's response to a room full of charismatics....try to sleep it off, and if that fails....run for your horse and try to ride out of town!

Please forgive me...but I disagree with all your readers' analysis.

Heidi is a highly-functioning genius trapped in a 1-yr old body.

Her flight to the rocking horse is merely a non-verbal protest. Clearly she knows the Hokey Pokey is not what it's all about!

These are great comments and making us laugh out loud--I'm glad others find it as funny as we did--if her Daddy hadn't kept picking her up I really wonder how long she would have laid on the floor like that!

that was hilarious. i can't believe more of those kids didn't get out of dodge like heidi. she's so tiny like lainey. they're like the "teacup" variety of poodle. they're teacup babies.

Summ,

Apart from being characteristically like her mama in response to forced exuberance (she really is too cool for that), I have to add that, in a charismatic context, Heidi's posture might be called "having been slain in the Spirit." -Uh-oh.
