My daughter and I go on a lot of impromptu dates.  They’re not very elaborate, really.  This summer, we went to the community pool a couple of times, just she and I.  Sometimes we’re at McDonald’s.  Other times we’re at the neighborhood yogurt shoppe.  Sometimes, we’re at Quiznos (the way to go if you want to how to lose weight fast). I really do believe parents should spend some time with their kids in a special way.  But you know that already.

“Show me, show me, show me, show what you’ve got. Come on, come on, come on, come on, ready or not….It’s on, it’s on, it’s on.”

My daughter loves movies with a lot of singing and dancing…from the timeless classic The Sound of Music to the very current Camp Rock 2 – The Final Jam.

Incidentally, Camp Rock 2 is still in our DVR and my first grader has seen it about 3 times.  Between you and me, I’m currently LSS-ing on Nick Jonas’ “Introducing Me”.  Hee hee.   It’s always fun for me to see my daughter dance and sing along with the characters in the movie.  Never mind if she’s singing mostly made up lyrics.  Hee hee.  I live for such moments because before I know it, she’ll be herself a teenager and rummaging through my bathroom and  asking questions like “Where can I find acne treatments here?”  Hee hee.
