i wanted to get evie out for a while yesterday, but it was cold, so i decided that we would go out and take a ride on the F-market streetcar. evie loves riding the train, and the the F is an old fashioned streetcar that you can catch pretty much at the end of our street. we had a fun ride, a good walk on market street, and avoided the rain that started falling while we were out without an umbrella.
on the way home, i asked evie if she wanted to sing a song for me. she started singing in her quiet, high-pitched voice. i listened for a bit trying to figure out what she was singing. sometimes it's "goosey gander", others it's a sesame street song about "penguins by the door". this one took me a second to place. i heard "clock tick think of you".
oh my! it's "time after time". the cyndi lauper song. i sing it to her whenever i'm putting her to bed or i want to calm her down. she proceeded to sing a whole verse to me.
i almost cried. i'm tearing up just thinking about it now. who knew she was listening?
