A few months ago, we bought EB a mini-guitar so that she can strum along with me while I was practicing my own guitar playing. Alas, my busy schedule and (literally) growing responsibilities put my guitar ambitions on a temporary hiatus. However EB continues to show interest, picking up the instrument on a near-daily basis and even making up songs of her own. Here's a video of her recent performance. I've transcribed her slightly surreal lyrics below -- a song about space exploration in Mars, sang with a Bluegrass twang.
I know-I know you want to go
That's how I talk, go...
You have to listen-listen to my charge
You're in charge so I'm Mars
Have to go-go-go-go-go
go-go-go-go-go-go-go
go-ooo
Rock on, Little Girl!
I like Emma's song. She is a much better singer than her pops. Did he ever tell you about the time we were asked not to karaoke because of his stellar rendition of Downtown?
