Madeline Peyroux

Jason has got me listening to NPR and I love it! This morning, they had a woman named Madeline Peyroux (pronounced Peru) singing on the show and she sounded like Billie Holiday! I really like her music. Her third album, Half the Perfect World, came out in September of last year. I wouldn't mind owning that cd. =)

I also would like to read the book Born on a Blue Day, which is a book about an autistic savant's brilliant mind. It sounded really interesting.

Cute Andy Story:
Andy is 3 years old. The other morning Andy was singing a song and then he said, "I used to sing that song when I was a boy." I then laughed and said, "You still are a boy!". He got a little frustrated with me and said, "No i'm not! I'm a man!" I then told him that he was not a man yet, that he was still a boy. He then explained "No, I am a man because I can jump real high!"

One more cute story:
Last night Andy had out his doctor kit and he was taking my temperature with his plastic thermometer. He said that my temperature was bad and so I asked him what was wrong with me and he said, "You lost your teeth!" He then proceeded to look in my ear and said "your teeth are in your ear!" He then left and went to the bathrooom and then came back with "new teeth" and said that he fixed me. He played this game over and over and I had many medical problems. Once I had Elmo in my ear and then I lost my back!
