time in a stationwagon
Amy just blogged about somethings that really sent me into the way back machine. She was remembering about sininging Helen Reddy songs. I remember picking her up from the babysitters (she was about 3) and we would sing Carol King songs. I forgot how much singing went on in our house, but mostly in the car. It was before seatbelts and car seats. I just threw the kids in the back of the stationwagon and away we went. We didn't even think of the danger involved. I am so glad that the laws have changed. I want my grandkids to be safe. I don't think we need laws for everything, but that is a good one. While I'm in the wayback mode,,,,,,,I remember singing the songs from Annie, The sound of Music, and most of all "Grease." Emily and I watched Grease every Sunday when we came home from church. After the first song we would be asleep and Mike would turn it off. He didn't like the movie because the good girl turned bad to get the guy. the rest of us watched it for the music and of course "John Travolta". (what a hunk). I used to remind Mike that James Bond killed people and slept with women he hardly knew and he watched those movies over and over. I always lost that argument because I loved Sean Connery too. (another Hunk).

hahaha. I love your logic regarding the movies. Too funny. Also ironic that I have been in the "way back machine too" - thinking about music and the memories it triggers. Very cool. 8 tracks??? what are those??? (jk)
