This morning Mason and I drove James to school (Yes, we live two blocks away, but we had a delightfully lazy morning). On the way home UB40 came on with their masterful song, "Red red wine." I had to chuckle because about a month ago the song had come on, again while driving, and Mason started grooving more than James and I had ever witnessed. Mason loves dancing! I like to pop in a mix that my sister, Kathleen, gave us and together we dance like the dickens to Mika and other favorites. But all that Mika dancing combined did not match the dancing we saw while he be-bopped to UB40.
When the song came on this morning, Mason was half asleep with his beloved (and stinky) blanket shoved half-way down his throat. I turned to look at him anyway and what did I see?! Michael Flatley himself, rocking out to his favorite tune!!! It was as if the song had a enchanting effect on his limbs. They seemed to be moving by themselves, as his face looked just as groggy as ever. If this is what he thinks of UB40, just wait until he hears Abba!

This was a crack-up. Probably not as cute as watching him dance in real life, but what fun to read....And go ABBA, we love them! We all have Mamma Mia on our ipods!
Ok, Chris doesn't have Mamma Mia, but the girls and I love the ABBA songs on that soundtrack.
that is so cute and funny. I wish I were there to witness the dance grooves going on. He takes after his mommy. :)
Mika rules!
