It appears that the hubs and I have indeed produced a little songstress. How do we know? She constantly sings made-up songs throughout the day. She has even "written" a few that she repeats. One of my favorites is when she goes to grab her tiny guitar that we got in Mexico a few years ago and she strums open strings and sings "When I was in the meadow, I heard a strange sound . . ." then she usually gives a few different animal sounds. I can't remember if I already wrote on here about another favorite that I am only allowed to sing on Fridays. The chorus goes "I love you! in a very sweet vo-o-o-oice." And the verse contains my favorite line of hers ever "I want you to go away like a rocketship." Lately most of her songs start "When I was a little girl" or "When I was young." Homegirl has a real sense of history at three-and-a-half years.
Today she told me she wants me to help her write all her songs down. Then she wants to buy lots of little guitars. Then she wants to give copies of her songs and the guitars to "all the little kids" so they can learn "how to make songs." She is the greatest.

I always thought she would be the actual rockstar in the family. She already has her daddy's affection for Guitar Center.
i think when I was in a meadow is a hit in the making
There's so many songs on the radio that don't have lines quite as awesome as "I want you to go away like a rocketship."
Ah, she really is great. What a fun kiddo.
