Savannah has been singing up a storm lately.
They are generally songs of her own creation and involve cows and pigs. Sometimes they are songs about birthdays, or rescuing someone. We have also been hearing lots of French school songs, which is very adorable.
She’s back in music class at the Lyric Opera this semester and I think she really missed it. I am sad that it’s not ‘Mom and Me’ anymore. She gets to go in all by herself. I suppose this is just the next thing in a long line of ‘lessons I will be waiting outside for’.
I have also been weaning her off of kid music. For a while, I was stupid and let her listen to kid-centered CD’s in the car and then it got to the point where that’s all she wanted to hear and I wanted to kill myself. I’ve got her listening to a lot of indy-pop. She’s also taking a liking to Coldplay’s Vida la Vida album and a the new Black-Eyed Peas album.
Our go to compromise is the classical station, which I have no problem with. You should have heard the excited squeal when one of the songs that has been featured on Little Einsteins came on. “This is the Joey song!!!” Actually, it’s Handel, but that’s a start.
Sing away little superstar!
