It was already ten past nine, and they definitely should have closed their eyes and gone to Slumberland. Yet, here they were, with me, in single bed, singing and writing song lyrics. My 7-year-old sang, I jot down the words on her small white board, and my 3-year-old followed on with ‘banging’ her head. It was “Numb”, one of those loud pieces from Linkin’ Park.
Welcome to today’s motherhood.
Being a mom means keeping in reality check on what my kids are listening, watching, etc. So Linkin’ Park it is. Thanks to my big bro who religiously plays the tunes like, every other day or so.
But okay, time to cool off. So we went with another song, this time, a sentimental classic: Edelweiss. After that, 3-minute stretching and exchanges of good-night’s and I-love-you’s. Sleep well, sweet dream. And soon reality vanished.
