I have a daughter who is very much the grown up person (12 is the new 16) and whom I would embarrass to no end if I were to even hum a note of any type music in front of her or her friends. Much less your classical, which is so not cool at this age. And if I were to add any gestures, oh my. lolSandraReehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16305161476021509074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25195308.post-23260218699274668272008-06-21T13:05:00.000-04:002008-06-21T13:05:00.000-04:00Yes silly grin imagining you my friend!Hugs,RoseYes silly grin imagining you my friend!<BR/>Hugs,<BR/>RoseKissing of the Frogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11621769823368917856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25195308.post-618109726644724182008-06-21T12:32:00.000-04:002008-06-21T12:32:00.000-04:00I never need look out the car window to find that ...I never need look out the car window to find that free-spirited Singer, My Darling <B><I>Joni</B></I>, for , don't you know, the mirror will suffice!
