And now just jumping up and down ... it's more like a ballroom dance kind of a thing with looping and reversing direction ... quite graceful actually.  Cyrus finds it weird, but, mostly he has noticed that his little brother is a bit different so he just leaps over him back and forth while Snoopy does his "mommy's home dance."

Do do do ... the mommy's home dance, do do do-do do-do  the mommy's home dance ...." and so on.  Yes, I do sing to my dogs and my kids too.  So ... the last few days .... Snoopy's started to sing the song too.  Seriously.  He sings (pretty quietly, not howling) and stays in tune and he dances at the same time.  You should see the look Cyrus gives him.  I mean ... the dance is one thing .... but the song too?
