Mama Sings

The kids are upstairs listening to "The Watsons Go To Birmingham" audiobook from the library.  They just love Christopher Paul Curtis's books.  His writing is so honest and never talks down to kids.  He describes things in a way that makes you think, "I've felt that way a hundred times but never described it as perfectly as that."  Plus he makes them laugh.

And me?  Well, I am barefoot in the kitchen in my jammies doing the dishes.  So to remain sane and dignified, I am playing my Mama Singalongs mix on iTunes.  I have never noticed before how perfectly Broadway Baby feeds into Roxie.  Both musically and thematically.

Now all I need is a follow spot in the kitchen.
