Go do the right thing.

I took the kids in the car for an errand run today. We stopped by the post office, went to fill up with gas, and then to the library to see the model train display and turn in some books. Mostly we spent time watching the trains go around and around and around. Ellen and Jack wanted to stay longer, and even I found plenty of things to look at along the model tracks. Finally we stopped by the park and played until the wind got the better of us and it was time to go fix dinner.

At some point I turned on the radio and we all heard the song "New Attitude". Ellen promptly called from the back seat, "Docker Laura, Mom! It's your favorite song!" I admit it; I am a Dr. Laura junkie and usually tune in when we're driving around between 2:00 and 5:00 in the afternoon. I get to listen to about one call's worth of advice before Ellen starts loudly singing "Twinkle, Twinkle" or "The Wheels on the Bus" to drown out all the boring talk.

Yep, my three-year-old knows Dr. Laura's theme song.
