Given Kathleen's love of paper, it's no surprise that a pile of sheet music headed for the recycling bin brought out big smiles. She happily crunched up the music, and waved it up and down, and chortled with glee. She's very industrious when it comes to destroying paper!
But aside from her fascination with paper, Kathleen has a real love for music. Singing is one of the few things that will calm her down if she gets upset while in the car. But don't try singing any lullabies. She'll cry right through those. Instead, try oldies. It's a little unbelievable, but "Hey, Baby" and "The Witch Doctor" have instant results. In fact, she's only quiet as long as you keep singing. We feel a bit ridiculous, but we'll confess to having sung those songs over and over for a whole car ride. (Thank goodness we live on a small island and don't have to drive very far!)
This week we also discovered that Kathleen likes praise music. Kathleen and Dad hung out during Mom's rehearsal for Sunday's service, and Kathleen loved it. Her current favorite is "Your Love is Amazing." She gets so excited when it's sung! She kicks and smacks her arms up and down, and as soon as she can talk, we're sure she'll be singing along!
