Back and Forth...

Kate as she whips her hair back and forth

OK Will Smith. I have a gripe with you. You have been a fantastic entertainer and your very easy on the eyes. You have an adorable wife and equally cute kids.  You have the world at your fingertips…access to talent beyond talent. Then, your daughter says to you one day, “Daddy I want to be a mega superstar singer”. Being the good dad Will, you allow her to stand up in front of thousands of unsuspecting folks and sing this song... 

Based on your hairstyles from the 80's, I realize that you want to give your daughter creative freedom to be an artist. However, in this house alone, everyone, even the dog is howling the tune but ad-libbing their own words. Here are just a few....i whip my tail back and forth (Miles), I whip my eggs back and forth (me scrambling eggs yesterday), I whip my toothbrush back in forth (Kate this morning). Just yesterday, I sang..."I locked my keys in the car, I locked my keys in the car."  Will, do you want our first memory of your beautiful daughter to be of an irritating song that gets stuck in our head for days on end? Maybe it's your genius at work, because it's glued to my memory whether I like it or not.  Raise the bar Will...The miracle is that I know she has the talent within her if she is anything like you. Anyway, I am off to clean the breakfast dishes and whip the sponge back and forth.
