Rumor Has It

Reason to love my kid? I have about 751,000 of them. But today it was when I turned on Adele's 21 album. We were listening while cleaning and then Marin said "Mom, that girl sounds just like you."

I know it's not true, but thank you, my sweet Marin, for saying something like that. Being great in my daughter's eyes is so much better than being great in anyone else's. It's also much better than her usual "Mom! Stop singing!"
