We have added a little Zazz to our nightly routine.
I guess after 6 or so years, the nightly book, bath, brush, tickle, talk, smooch, prayer bit has gotten crusty for them.
So the kids (5 and 6 years old now) have decided to request our presence at a party in their bedrooms.
We knock.
They giggle.
We are invited in.
Upon entering, we see that they have plugged in their special lights and gotten all their blinky-light toys to strobing. They start the beat, in pure techno fashion - and then comes the dancing.
All four of us jump around, flopping our arms, and trying not to strain our backs to the tune of their techno beat. It's an all-out Hoopla.
Little girl actually assigns a syllable to the bass line, "Oots, oots, oots, oots" she says in quite possibly the sweetest, rhythmic voice you've ever heard...
We dance till we jiggle our sillies out and then we finish our same ol' crusty routine.
I love going to their bedtime parties.

That's the best kinda party right there!
You're such a great mom....
That's so cute. My boys bought a Toby Mac CD w/ a track of his boy rapping. They think it's the coolest thing. "Shake it. Don't break it. It took your mama 9 months to make it."
