The music I’m going to write about today is not only the soundtrack to a famous movie/musical…

It is also, apparently, the soundtrack of my life.

For the past two years or so, The Sound of Music has been played in near constant rotation.

In the house. In the car. On the iPod. In my brain.

Over. And Over. And Over.

We introduced The Small Person to The Sound of Music on her 4th birthday. We let her stay up late and she snuggled in bed with Jimmy and I while we watched the 12,980,098 hour movie. (When we suggested the movie, we’d forgotten how L-O-N-G it is…)

She has been in love with the music ever since.

When I took her to the musical she was completely mesmerized for three hours. Every time the curtain closed she nearly cried because she thought it was over.

Her favorite song is the yodeling-goat-herder-puppet-thing song.
