Maybe it was because my 5-year-old decided to write a letter to Santa about all the things mom had done wrong that day.
Maybe it was because my 3-year-old refused to let me brush her teeth for the umpteenth time until I showed her pictures of rotten teeth on the Internet.
Or maybe it’s just that writer’s block will do strange things to a person.
But that night, when I watched Disney’s Moana for the first time with my husband, and I really sympathized with Maui when Moana came to drag him off on her quest. When he sang the “You’re Welcome” song, all I could think of was my own kids.
I’m always in need of a creative outlet, so I decided to write a spoof of the song. For fun, I added some funny parenting pictures for your viewing pleasure. The singing is by a talented artist, Celeste Notley-Smith. Check it out and let me know what you think!

how sweet and imaginative … really well done, mom
Thanks for your kind words!
Aw, that’s adorable. Are you the one singing as well? Very talented! My kids and I loved that song and that movie, though their favorite is the ‘Shiny’ song as I allow them to get away with shouting along “it’s time to kick your hiney!”
Thank you! No, it’s not my vocals, but I wish it was! A talented artist named Celeste Notley-Smith did them. 🙂
