three hundred words a day. july 8.

My littles and I share one iTunes account.  Initially, when they were actually little, they listened to the kind of music that I purchased.  The bubble-gum pop, top 40, sing it in the shower type stuff that I usually like. 

Now, as they've gotten older, I periodically find little piles of change by my desk with post-it notes telling me they downloaded a song on their own.  Just so we are clear, the change never does quite cover the full cost of their music, but I generally do not complain too loudly.  My thought being that since we share an account, any music they download comes to my iTunes as well - keeping me abreast with what they listen to. 

My own little window into their worlds.

I ran the beach this morning and putting my iPod on shuffle, headed toward the shore.  Some songs I'd never heard before, some I could sing every lyric, and some make me realize there's a lot to learn about teenagers.
