A Song About Martin Luther King Jr. and A Big Bright Sun

So. I found this new song.

Well, new to us.

Great Big World by Kari Kimmel

I was in the car, taking my girls to school when I played it for them for the first time. Almost before a word was sung, Lucy squealed, “THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE SONG!”

The next day we were driving… listening to Great Big World for the 100upteenthbillioneth time when Lucy interrupted our little sing-along session,

THIS SONG REMINDS ME ABOUT MARTIN! IT’S JUST LIKE THE SONG ABOUT MARTIN!!!

An aside: in case you didn’t know… Lucy eats, sleeps, drinks and talks in ALL CAPS.

To be clear.

I probed, “Martin?” Knowing the answer, since MLK day was only days away.

YEAH! MARTIN!

I turned off Great Big World so she could sing the song about Martin to me.

And then I took video… because, folks… this is the dream if ever there was a dream…

I do love her. I really do love that girl…

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday… and take care of your Loves…
