Last night Mark came home from work with a surprise for me. An ABBA cd. To some of you that might not mean a lot, but to me its a big deal. Its no surprise to those who know me that I love to sing and dance all around the house. It is a fun to way to break the tension and provide endless
torture entertainment for the kiddos. It also is a great
punishment motivator for when the kids don't listen to my spills. I make them learn a song and dance with me and then perform it for their dad that night. (I'm pretty sure they really like it though-we usually end up laughing like crazy at each other).
So, this morning as we headed off to Bible Study I popped in "Take A Chance On Me" and let the
moaning singing begin. I LOVE that song. No idea why except it has a catchy beat and is a great dance song. If I ever move into the new century I will have it on my MP3. And then I can
tune out the children focus on the music all the time.
Baby, I'm glad you took a chance on me! - and yes, Mark, I am cracking myself up!
Do you have any secret songs that you just love and can't resist singing out loud to? Let me know and maybe I can get some new ideas to
drive the kids crazy with share with the kiddos.
Well, you know I absolutely LOVE "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" and of course, "Suspicious Minds". The ABBA CD is great!
ReplyDeleteI can SOOO see you singing and dancing to Take a chance on me. What about Dancin Queen?
ReplyDeleteSo I'm assuming that means you loved Mama Mia when it came out earlier?
ReplyDeleteMy Mom TOTALLY did this to me as a child. Her favorite: Itty Bitty Yellow Polka Dot Bikini. I wish I could remember more of them, because they were all equally as crazy.
ReplyDeleteNow I need to find some songs to torture Ali with, post-haste!
I can't think of any songs that annoy my kids, they're still a little too young for that.
ReplyDeleteHowever, my husband and I are 6 1/2 years apart, so we grew up listening to totally different kinds of music. He hates my music and for the most part I don't like his. We annoyed each other with our music so much in our year and a half of dating that now we don't listen to any music in the car...kinda sad isn't it? :)
