babysitting and over the rhine...



hi kids.

since i work in day care, i land a lot of babysitting jobs.  i know, i'm a 
little old to be babysitting, but it's fun to do in my spare time, and when 
pay day seems *so* far away...it helps out just a little bit.

anyway, i was watching trevor and trey last night, two of my absolute 
favorites.  i took them from the day care to the mall, where we had pizza and 
then played in the "mr. rodger's neighborhood" playground.  one thing i try 
to do, though, is play age-appropriate music in the car.  i usually have a 
disney collections cd or something in my car, but i forgot it this morning.  
i tuned my radio to "radio disney" and thought that would be ok...

goodness, did i get tired of all the hip-hop poppy stuff!  i couldn't bear it 
anymore, so i hit the CD button on my stereo, and jack's voice filled my car, 
singing "farewell barefoot ballerina, with the splinters in your feet."  
trevor, who had been silent up until then, shouted, "i love this song!"  i 
just sort of turned around and said, "you do?"  then, when the cd looped 
around to play *go down easy*, i asked him if he liked that song, and he said 
yes.

he's three and a half, and his older brother listens to linkin park and 
staind.  do you think maybe i made a convert?  probably not, but it's worth 
exploring!  :)

happy thursday.

*hugz and kisses*
