Holy Crap – I am the slacker of all slackers. Well, that, and I have severe blogging A.D.D.
For all three of you who MIGHT still check in here, gotta tell you about what Liam did yesterday. We’re in the car, running errands, and one of my Mix CD’s was in.
He started singing along with Kasabian – Shoot the Runner. I am SO. FRIGGIN’. PROUD! (I muted the “bitch” part, don’t worry.) Of course, immediately after that, he stuck the straw from a Capri Sun juice pouch up his nose. He’s still a work in progress.
Oh, and I have a NEW blog that takes up the majority of my bloggy time now – Music Savvy Mom . (Yeah, I made that up. Don’t y’all rat me out, now – I’ve got people convinced I know something about something…)
We’re headed to Texas tomorrow to visit DH’s fam. I hear it’s hotter than the seventh layer of Hell there now.
So, today in the car, on a mundane trip home from the grocery store, my three year old pipes up from his carseat in the back:
“MAMA. May I have the Rollercoaster song, PWEEEEAASSEEE?!?”
Yes…he meant RHCP: Love Rollercoaster. (now playing over there —> ) And yes, he can sing along with the chorus, the “ooh, ooh, ooh, oooh oooohs” AND the “one, two, one two three” parts.
*sigh*
As if that wasn’t enough to plaster a stupid grin on my face, next he asked for:
“The Woo Hoo song, Mama…the Woo Hoo song!”
Oh, yes. He meant Blur: Song 2 Polite kid that he is, he LOVES the “pleased to meet you” part, and sings along with gusto.
To complete my afternoon o’ happiness, he finished his set request with:
“Mer’yun Toast Burning, Mama! C’mon!”
Seriously. My son LOVES Beat Soup: Miriam, You Toast is Burning .
Asks for it over and over and over. At three, he’s into obscure ska. I friggin’ LOVE it!
(You’ll need to stop the music player to the right to start this youtube. Not the greatest – the album version is much better, but it’s all I could find on the web.)
Am I a proud Mama? Ohhhh, yes.
He may not have any idea what the “Wheels on the Bus” do when he gets to Pre-School, but I don’t consider that any great loss…heh.
Liam enthusiastically approved!
