Music from the Past – The List

Music from the Past – The List

My daughter is only 10 but I see glimpses of what she’ll be like as a teenager….on the most part it seems manageable so it should be interesting to see what I have to say a few years from now!!!

The one thing that I do enjoy about her “grown-upness” is our conversations and her new love to my music….. Its moments when she says “Mama in your olden days” or “in your time”….seriously!!!! Me OLD???? I didn’t get THAT memo…UGH…make that double UGH!!!

Back to my happy place of I’m young, thin and tall!!! We started listening to some of my favorite songs….they reminded me of when I was carefree and had no responsibilities……

I decided to make a list of some of the songs in no particular order genre and the people each one reminds me of!! I’ve attached the youtube links for each song just for your entertainment

1. The Sign by Ace of Base.…….. Reminds me of Lesley
2. Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman? by Bryan Adams……… Reminds me of Salma
3. Hold on by Wilson Phillips.…… Reminds me of Mona
4. That’s what friends are for by Dionne Warwick ….Remind me of Wessan
5. Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle……Reminds me of Terri
6. The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five ……Reminds me of
7. Kiss by Prince…..  Reminds me of Maha
8. 500 miles by the Proclaimers….. Reminds me of Hiba
9.  God Blessed Texas by  Little Texas  Reminds me of Richard

It’s official They Have a YouTube Channel

In this day and age it’s so hard to keep up with our kids. Even though it seems things are so much more convenient and accessible there isn’t enough time. Even though I have extremely strict rules about electronics (and I’ve been successful so far!) Kids are just built differently these day and we as parents have to adjust and know when to give and come to a mutual agreement about it all….

The girls have been wanting to have their own YouTube channel for some time and I’ve prolonged it as much as I can. Until one day Jennah came up to me with her notepad and we finally set some YouTube rules.

So this summer we will keep everyone entertained with what my girls think is the theme…. Stay tuned and as they always say “Please Subscribe!”

I’ll leave you with their Intro….

 

Well as it turns out my kids even go by my motto without me intentially teaching it….all about Making Life Memorable
