I never thought I'd see the day where I'd be jammin in my living room to "Do you know the Muffin Man?", but alas, here it is. And while it sounds relatively pathetic, it was actually the best feeling I've had in a while. I can't explain it, but you don't mind being a dork for/with your kid. In fact, you pretty much prefer it to anything else.
Today we also hit a Gymboree class, which I thought would be super lame. It just wasn't possible to take her outside today, its far too hot. And staying in with her is like torturing her. She gets bored looking at me all day. However, the class was actually quite fun. What made it fun was how Dottie, 9 mos, reacted to the whole thing. She had such a good time, and was so friendly to everyone....it was hard not to enjoy it. Clapping, laughing, banging along--it was right up her alley. Some of the other babies seemed either unfazed, or unhappy. And, the teacher talked to me afterward and sort of offered me a job, which was unexpected, at best. My background might be perfectly suited to working in a place like that, actually. And I considered it, for a moment.... Sure would be closer to home....
