Dear Mai,
We've had the opportunity to get some quality Maya and Daddy time in over the past few weeks. What is quality time? Listening to some Red Fang, wearing black concert t-shirts, watching sigur ros videos and singing Police songs and other age appropriate things. Mostly we like to do stupid things together like make faces at the webcam.
Although I haven't been able to capture it on film you're starting to sing too. I know, it's kind of far fetched but there are a few songs we sing that you can hit a few notes here and there. Especially our "ooh ooh ooh" song. (wish I remembered what the actual song was)
You're also starting to like some nursery rhymes and this might come to a shock but I don't really know many nursery rhymes. The one I do know is that itsy bitsy spidy song. You're pretty found of doing the hand motions to this one but of course won't do most of them on film. You definitely like the whole "wash the spider out" motion. Probably because its all wild and crazy like.
video doesn't play? Watch it on youtube!
Maybe someday when you're old enough to pick up an instrument and we are in a heavy metal band together I'll look back at this moment and think.... ah, that's where my little thrasher got her start.
Keep on rockin' the free world Mai,
Daddy
