Of Grandchildren and Musicals

I've finally added another item to my "TV Library Recommendations" list at Amazon. My dear granddaughter's favorite movie as of right now is "Mary Poppins." She can sing most of the songs, and you should hear her sing "Let's Go Fly a Kite." I know I'm a bit prejudiced, but it has to be the cutest thing ever. I can't put Selena's favorite on my list, though, because we don't own it at our house.

But we do own and I can add "The Sound of Music" to my Listmania. Now, THAT'S my all time favorite musical. I really do believe every home should have it and often bring it out for an evening of family watching. Selena is being introduced to it now and I can guarantee that she'll love it. Like the rest of us, she'll love the music itself, but I know she'll love the children too. There's little that I don't like about this movie, so I would recommend it highly for any family that doesn't have it yet, and now it's quite affordable. But it's my guess that most of you do have it already. Am I right?

I hope there will be a time when I can enjoy a "Sound of Music" watching day with popcorn and Lena. Maybe it won't be too long from now--you see she's getting to be a big girl now--and by the way, that's a good thing because she's needing to get ready to help with a little brother or sister in October or so. Yup, praise be to God, we have another grandchild on the way. So, we'd appreciate your prayers for mom and baby and the big little girl.
