How Proud am I?

It's been a busy weekend. It's too late, and I'm too tired to offer up details, but we threw a surprise birthday/slumber party for The Girl this weekend and I've been too busy to blog. This post will be another short one, but I have to share because I had a proud parent moment the other day.

The four of us were in the car and Frank Sinatra came on the radio singing a song I've never heard. From the back seat of the car 2x4's (7 year old) boy pipes up, "This is Frank Sinatra, right?"

How many seven year olds do you know that can recognize Mr. Sinatra's crooning? I was so proud! I looked at him and said, "YEAH! You 'da MAN!"

Ok, so, the kid's cool, and I'm a little lame.

The kid is cool...!

Embarrasing moments #128837 - Having to explain to my Niece who Roger Moore was. Put it this way, if an actor hasn't done a voice for Shrek, Cars or any other disney / pixar film, they don't exist...

She is only three and a bit though, so she is forgiven...this time.

Fly me to the moon, because this kid rocks. I saw the Chairman of the Board in concert when I was 12 with my grandmother. I feel so fortunate to have seen him perform in my lifetime! :)

PS I love Roger Moore, Peej!

I totally get it. Kiddos should know about all music not just the stuff on the radio.

YESSSSS!

That's great, WiP! My son (10) likes to watch the Game Show Network. We watch the old Match Game from the '70's. It tickles me to no end to hear him talk about Nipsey (Russell) and Charles (Nelson Reilly). :)
