Down, down do your thing
So… I realized today that Annada sings along with me in the car. I’m not sure when she started because once I became aware I also realized I’d been hearing and ignoring it for a while.
I figured it out today because Annada started singing on the way to the car. We were leaving Campus Crusade for Christ after hosting lunch for the summer interns. She had been cooped up a lot, so I was letting her walk to the car (and check out every bug/lizard/bird/leaf/rock… on the way). As soon as she saw the car she started singing, “Down, down do your thing, do your thing. Down, down do your thing, do your thing.” (From Stupid Cupid.)
The YearOne interns had made a CD of songs at the end of the year and I’ve been listening to it. Out of curiosity, I started singing with her. When I go to “To the right, to the right, to the right…” she started shrugging her shoulders to the right!!
So, yea… I dance in the car a lot while driving. Just like that.
On the way home, the CD came on to that song. We sang it together. Then the next song came on. This time I listened and sure enough from the back seat came a sweet little, “tonight’s gonna be a good night, yeah tonight’s gonnna be a good good night.” The next song and she was singing, “So I run to you, I run to yooouuu…” Then, “Go hard, or Go home,” rap staccato and all.
Hmmm… makes the whole “little ears in the back seat” thing more real!
Update! Okay, this was too cute, I had to share. Yesterday Annada and I were walking together when all of the sudden she started singing, “Bye, bye, bye, bye.” When I laughed, she put out her right hand, crossed it over her body and did the dance as she sang the song. :).The Backstreet Boys ARE back.
