Tanya and me in our musical adventure....

Today, I thought i could just elaborate a little bit about raising kids.

You see along with it being a huge responsibility, with loads of diapers, sleepless nights etc. it can be an absolute fun ride if you have a good sense of humour!

And also i personally get to influence another little human being. How cool is that?

Before you go judging on me, whether a parent agrees to it or not, however hard one tries to avoid influencing the kid, it is there, at least to a certain extent.....

Anyway when such is the case, my daughter's total disinclination towards music was a shocker to me. Although i never admitted that it disturbed me, i was like why? why doesn't she get interested?... Although she liked a few rhymes and a little bit of music here and there she never had any tolerance for good music. As a mother you tend to question yourself...

Maybe i did not listen to good music during my pregnancy!...

Maybe there is something going on in her ear drum...

Maybe my daughter is different. Yes i'm proud of that! ( Although you know you really aren't!)

Such was the musical quest until my hubby bought an ipod and downloaded some songs in there. For the first time i saw her totally engrossed and she was automatically making all the cool dance moves, the head banging and everything with the ipod plugged into her ears!....

Here comes the moment of revelation my friends.....

She was plugged into hip-hop ... SEAN PAUL was on her ears and boy o boy she was going crazy. She wouldn't give us the ipod. 

She looked at me like, 

why didn't you ever listen to such good music before? 

All those 'Plain White Ts, goo goo dolls and James Blunt were killing me. 

Look at me now baby!... accompanied by the head-banging of course....

She would top all those crazy females you see swaying for hip hop. 

A true authentic natural hip-hop fan who is three years old!

Now, Sean Paul fills my house and I borrow some cool dance moves from my daughter...

 I know what you are all thinking! ---- Look who was talking about influencing!! I know.
