(Ma)donna

Gracie has discovered the world of girly, bubblegum pop music, and let me tell ya, she is THRILLED.

It all started with Aqua and the song Barbie Girl, which Gracie had memorized by the age of two. Then came her passionate love for Hannah Montana (not the actual show. I can't bear it, so she has to make do with the commercials she sees now and again). And thanks to my mom (thanks a lot, Mom), Gracie discovered the song So What- I'm a Rock Star by Pink while she was listening to the radio.

After listening to that for a few times, I just couldn't handle it anymore. I'm not really a fan of girly, bubblegum pop.

With the exception of Madonna. I LOVE Madonna. I have always loved Madonna, and I WILL always love Madonna, and in my humble opinion, the Immaculate Collection is one of the greatest collections of all times (besides anything Fleetwood Mac, of course. Stevie will always rule, as far as I'm concerned).

And let me just tell you, after putting in my Madonna CDs, Gracie has never enjoyed music so much in her life. She even decided that, instead of being called Donna (which is actually her real name, though we NEVER call her that. Grace is her middle name) she wanted her name to be changed to Madonna.

Hmmmm... I'm not sure I'm ready to rush off to the recorder's office for name changing paperwork anytime soon...

Lately, all of our days have been spent with me sitting on the couch while (Ma)donna performs for me.

She is a bit tone-deaf and she makes up about 95% of her lyrics...

...but dancing around and singing along to girly, bubblegum pop is apparently the bees knees, and nothing makes Gracie (ooops, I mean (Ma)donna) happier than being in the spotlight.

I wonder if this is just a phase... I kinda hope so. But knowing my little (Ma)donna and her diva/mega star personality, I'm not so sure.

At least I have a lot of funny pictures to black mail her with when she grows up.

Enjoy!

LOL! That is so cute! I love the photos!! My oldest loves music too. One of his favorites is his daddy's Van Halen cd. It cracks us up to see him rockin' to that.

Oh my gosh, that is FUNNY! I love it! Madelyn is into acting out all the scenes on the Disney movies.....WHILE the are on. I caught her acting out the evil Frollo while watching The Hunchback of Notre Dame....of course it IS only when they are singing that she does it....must be a music thing with these girls! Great fun...I love these little girls at this age. I do not know who is having more fun...her or me? Thanks for sharing!

Warmly,
Leslie
