Best Part of the Day - Now is there truly anything more darling than a Fourth o' July parade put on by 2, 3, 4 and 5 year olds? At one point Wes thought the parade was going to slow so he sped up and passed a bunch of kids. This was clearly not enough action for him, so he just decided to go in circles really fast. This kind of screwed up the parade route (as you can imagine). And yes, I did claim him after and I think most people were laughing. It was kind of cluster filled as these things will be anyhoo.
Worst Part of the Day - It rained and poured and then cleared up just in time for swim lessons so we had to hustle which I hate, hate, HATE as I tend to get crazy.
Musical Taste - This actually happened last week but I forgot to write it down. In some kid's meal we received this children's karaoke cd. It had a weird mix: ABC by Jackson Five, New Attitude by Patti Labelle. Anyway - Achy Breaky Heart by one Billy Ray Cyrus comes on and I'm (sadly) getting into it a bit - singing along. Suddenly from the back Wes says "Not THIS song! I don't like. Kick Drum Heart, please." Kick Drum Heart is by the Avett Brothers, a lovely band from Concord, NC which is about 15 minutes from us. And clearly musically superior to Billy Ray (if you haven't heard them, give them a listen. They've opened for some big bands and play a lot of indie music festivals. They really do rock). Funny when your 3 year old can tell bad music upon first listen. Might have to send him to Aunt Sarah or Cuz Megan for some musical education.
