What the Girls Are Up To...

At the risk of sounding like one of those parents who endlessly brag about their child's "talents"...I'm going to be real honest with you here, because there are just no two ways about it: Ava is a fantastic singer.

The amazing part about it to me is 1) She will actually sing when asked to. Candy might have to be involved, but when push comes to shove, she is ready and willing to belt it out, and 2) She remembers the words to so many songs! I am not going to lie to you and tell you she has perfect pitch, or that she is the next "American Idol" (although I do secretly have dreams of her winning American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance...back to back in the same year)...but let's face it...for a two year old she just knows a ton of songs. Primary songs, Disney songs, songs on the radio...Ava retains it all. So, without further adieu (I have NO idea if I spelled that correctly...what is "further adieu", anyway??)...here is the latest and greatest rendition of "A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes" from Ava Tait.

**Note: If you do not have a two year old girl in your house, you may not know that this is the song at the beginning of Cinderella. And when she is singing the song, Cinderella is taking her hair out of the braids she has slept in. Hence the fact that Ava MUST be playing with her hair while singing the song. Oh, and I missed Ava singing the first line of the song...but...you get the idea.




I also have a really cute video of Ella...but for some reason it isn't uploading. Check back later for some Ella action. :)

Hey - so Mix 96.9 is having a Kid Karaoke contest. You should totally enter Ava. I *think* you just have to send in a video of them singing a song they play on that station. That act could win you $1000.
