The Adorable Mr. Timber

If he was human I'd marry him.

NPR was talking about the revival of Finian's Rainbow, which got me thinking about the songs, which are wonderful--so this morning I was singing Old Devil Moon. Singing it. Full out. Selling it to the balcony. Looked over and there's Timber, sitting there with his eyes glued to me and a look of adoring anticipation on his face. I'm singing "I look at you and suddenly something in your eyes I see soon begins bewitching me" right at him and he's meeting my eyes with full-out attention; I expected him to pick up the chorus at any moment in the best romantic-lead tradition.

I knew he was just waiting for his morning cookie, but he kept it up for the entire song.

That kind of attention sure makes a girl feel good about herself. ;-D

How cute!

The kitty meows and bites my leg when I sing! But the boys love to hear me play flute or piano. Robbie sometimes asks me to play after he's in bed. :-)

Must be nice. When I sing, I get howled at.
