1 Mother 2 Another

The other day Maddie and I were listening
to music in the car, jamming out and singing along.
“Mommy?” Maddie said. “I like singing pop
music.”


“I do too, honey!” I replied, smiling. “What are
some of your favorite pop songs to sing, and why?”


“Well,” she said pensively, “There’s that
Justin Beaver, of course. He has a lot of popular songs.
Unfortunately,” she continued, “they’re not very
good.”


“Well,” she amended, “a couple of them are
well-written and would be nice to listen to if someone else sang
them.”


And this? Is why I love my daughter.
