A little background. Son #1, age 7, has been making up songs, and drumming with paint sticks on our old couch since he was 3. He’s actually pretty good, with his rhythm (always a rock and roll beat) and the tunes/lyrics he comes up with. Sometimes they can be a good glimpse into what’s going on in his mind, very telling.

The other day he announced that I might notice his songs changing a little bit, because now that it’s Halloween his songs may sound a little more spooky. He then went on to let me know that there are only 2 times during the year that his songs will change – Halloween and Christmas. You’d love his rock n roll version of Jingle Bells!

No school today – so I’m listening to his newest Halloween song which he prefaced with “This one is more of a sill Halloween song. It’s called ‘Trick or Treat – Smell my Feet”! I had to stop what I was doing to share that here! He’s come up with words, a new tune and I’m just amazed at how well he does with something off the top of his head.

Proud Mom moment!
