babysitting – day two – and christmas music?


Pretty asked Alexa to shuffle Johnny Mathis Christmas music today while she worked around the house, and I thought it was such fun. Nobody sings Christmas better than Johnny Mathis, right?

Hm. Unless it might be Dolly Parton. So after Pretty left to run errands in the pouring rain, I asked Alexa to shuffle Dolly Parton Christmas music. The first three songs had me singing along with holiday hits similar to Johnny’s, but much to my amazement, Alexa then played Dolly’s version of It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels which has me wondering just a tad about Alexa. I’m thinking she must have zeroed in on angels but misunderstood that Christmas music only pertained to Herald Angels who Harked their songs.

Pretty holds Baby Ella who has discovered her hands…

(note Carolina shirt – bring up a child in the way she should go)

…and what to do with them

Stay tuned.

      Right on both counts! Pretty is a fabulous “ideas” person, and Ella grows faster than we can keep up with between visits!!

      Trio and Trio II are two of my favorite albums of all time! Pretty and I are going to see Emmylou in concert next month in Greensboro, NC. I can’t wait to see her in person!
      Thanks so much – Ella grows every day!!
