My kids are such rock stars!


Mason has been a song writer for a few years now. His lyrics have come a long way. He started out with songs like "I Dropped My Ice Cream Cone". Then moved on to "My life Sucks, but I Don't Care". His latest was my return home surprise. It's called "I Like". I think this was co-written by Boston. It goes like this. It's sung kind of Nirvana-esque.

I like watching the sun set. I like watching it rise. I like watching for the colors of the dark blue sky.
I like, I like, I like these things so much.
Yaa
I like, I like, I like, I like thinking of you.
Yaa.
repeat.

This is kind of short for Mason, but I have a feeling his "mom" was not his favorite topic to write about. I absolutely love it though. Boston and Mason performed it for me when I got home from VT. I might have teared up if it weren't for their nasally, hard rock way of singing. Anyway it was cool. ( yes, I do keep all the lyric sheets, someday they will be needed for the documentary.)

Also, I wanted all those who have not heard yet, to know that Boston won first place in his 1 mile run for cross country. This is his first year running and he loves it. His time was 6 minutes and 30 seconds. I thought that was pretty good for his first race. I was gone, so I can't wait to see his next one.


Sid gets her rock star points for playing football with the little neighbor boy. He's 2 and apparently loves to tackle.

Holy cow! 6 min 30 sec! That's awesome! And Sid has always been so good with little kids. I remember her always dotting over Ethan and Cole at the park a few years ago.

Secretly I have always wanted to write songs and be a singer. I am jealous of Mason's talent. Congrats to Boston, that is awesome.

Whoa! I think I would fall over dead after running that fast. Seriously! That's so sweet about the songs I didn't know that about your boys.

Tell Mason & Boston I'm so impressed! I think you should video tape them singing the song and post it on your blog. Kudos to Sydney too - that takes LOTS of patience.

Your kids rock and so does your music. I love coming to your blog. The music does not disappoint. This is a trip down memory lane. I feel like I'm in high school again.

I also would like to see Boston and Mason singing the song!
