music in my brain.

 This is the part of the post where I exclaim that I can't believe that I have stopped blogging! Truly, I can't believe it. I thought summer would provide all sorts of time! Ah, I guess I will do better!

Tonight Parker got out of bed and came upstairs. He just got a summer haircut tonight which looks particularly cute. When his hair is short his eyes always seem to stand out more to me. Anyway this is what he said.

P: Mom, when I close my eyes to go to sleep I can't sleep because awesome hip hop music fills my brain. And then there is some Justin Bieber, Michael Jackson and that song Ridin' Solo. All the awesome music gets in my brain and I can't sleep downstairs.

How do you argue with that?

The other day he sat perfectly still listening to my ipod with some headphones. He listened to the ENTIRE Arcade Fire album, The Suburbs. He loves that album. I thought at one point he was asleep he was sitting so still, but he wasn't. He was just listening.

(He also happens to be wearing his Captain E.O. shirt here which makes me happy. )

I have no doubt, little buddy, that there is music in your brain. It's in your genes.
