Sing-Along

(Hum "How do you Solve A Problem Like Maria" in your heads...)

How do you make her stay?
And listen to all you say

How do you keep a wave upon the sand?

Oh how do you solve a problem like Ava?

How do you hold a moon beam in your hand?

When I'm with her
I'm confused
Out of focus
And bemused
And I never know exactly where I am

Unpredictable as weather
She's as flighty as a feather
She's a darling
She's a demon
She's a lamb

She'd out pester any pest
Drive a hornet from its nest

She can throw a twirling dervish out of whirl

She is gentle
She is wild
She's a riddle
She's a child
She's a headache
She's an angel
She's a girl!!

(all at once)
How do you solve a problem like Ava?
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
How do you find a word that means Ava?
How do you hold a moon beam in your hand?

Writers Note: Ava is not *really* a problem as the modified song suggests, just perplexing, crazy, fun, and teaches us new things about her and ourselves *everyday*!!
