Every Day Is A Parade
I recently had my grandchildren over for an afternoon visit. Among the many things my grandson likes to do (believe me there are many things he likes to do and they are usually all at once; he's a busy boy), is listen to music. So I put on a guitar rock cd. On came a song that was popular in the early 1970's. He was ok with it at first, but got bored within a minute. He went over to the cd player and removed the cd. He looked for another cd and recognized one he enjoys. Then out of the mouth of my adorable grandson, he says, "Now this is good music!" He popped in the cd and danced around. I started singing along and he says "Be quiet, you can't sing now, I'm singing." I guess I was not allowed to intrude on his enjoyment. Also in the room is my granddaughter. So she and I danced ( I was allowed to do that at least). My grandson listened, danced and sang along to the whole cd, which is a feat in itself since he is mister busy body. I am still not sure if he knows I'm the one who recorded the cd or if he just thinks that it is a cd from our collection I have lying around. But it doesn't matter, all I know is that out of our collection of cd's I have one "good music" cd that pleases my grandson. And that cd is one especially made by me for him, my granddaughter, future grandchildren and the rest of my family. My grandson gave me a beautiful compliment whether he knows it or not. Thanks for the lift, buddy!
