Ice Ice Baby... I saw her standing there

I don't think I realized just how much of an influence I am on my daughter until today. I've seen her act certain ways or do certain things that remind me of how I was when I was younger.

Growing up I was different from my friends in several ways, but one in particular was my love for sixties and seventies music. This stems from the fact that I would constantly hear it from my parents ALL THE TIME. Every summer we would also go on road trips. We would listen to The Beatles, Three Dog Night, Beach Boys, Santana, and so many others all during the drives. That music was second nature to me.

I passed on this same trait to my daughter. I introduced her to The Beatles last year. She thought they were okay until she saw "Across the Universe". She then fell in love with The Beatles. Now I need to introduce her to the other artists of that generation. I have also been introducing her to 80's music. She likes some of it, but she finds some of it silly. I would agree, but it's 80's music. It's a classic now.

She has certain friends that are very similar and their parents must be doing the same thing with their children. My daughter told me today of how she was in Science class with four friends singing Beatles songs while working on a project. That's my girl!

Now if only I could get her to remix Beatles music with Vanilla Ice, we'd be in business.
