A sweet funny from my sweet Emmalee
I was watching American Idol with Emmalee last night. It was the top 12 girls performing. While we were watching, I was giving my 2 cents on certain singers (well maybe I was offering more like a dollar).
She asks me out of the blue if I would ever go on American Idol. I chuckled and expressed that I couldn't go on because I can't sing. She then tells me "Yes you can". I chuckled again (singing to the radio isn't really singing!)and said "That's sweet of you Emmalee." I selfishly wanted to enjoy the innocent compliment. I didn't want to really share that not only am I WAY too old (the cut off age is 28, too bad I am 29). I also would be fodder for the critics of the really BAD singers in the early audition shows.
Even so, I was thrilled that my sweet 9 year old sincerly thought of the prospects of her aging, tone deaf mother performing on our favorite show.

That is so sweet!!! Ahhh, the innocent.
I don't know if you know, but you can get your blog printed and I think even tell it which posts to print in the book. Anyway, if you are interested let me know and I can email you the website. I saw the Heritage blog and thought what a great way to put it in a bog since you are already doing the blog. Anyway, just thought you might want to know.
That is cute! According to Simon, the other singers are nothing special so I'm sure you could go and wow them! :)
