A Season for Everything

I like country music. Toby Keith is my favorite entertainer. He’s a good song writer and ok, I think he’s kinda cute in a redneck sort of way. Baby Girl finds this absolutely disgusting….“He’s so old!” Yeah, a whole 3 years older than me (guess that makes me about ready for the old folks home) and one year younger than Hubby (does that make him older than dirt?). I take this attitude in stride and actually play up to it just for the sheer fun of grossing out BG. Then yesterday life threw me a little bone I just couldn’t walk away from. In searching online for Kenny Chesney posters, which I was doing because BG melts in her socks at the mere thought of the man (yes, she does think his tractor’s sexy), I came across an interesting little tidbit. Kenny Chesney, hottest country star on the planet in my daughter’s opinion is a mere 4 years younger than me! Being the loving mom that I am I felt it was my duty to share the information with her at just the right time. Namely when she was starting on Toby while I was singing along in the car. You should have seen the shocked look on her face, quickly followed by about a million thoughts and emotions passing before she conceded….”37’s not so old.” Sometimes life is sweet.
