Husband, to this day, still remembers that moment. And for me, it was just what happens during Christmas. To ask me to pick a favorite Christmas song is like asking me to pick a favorite piece of writing. Impossible. I could try but it would sound something like:
I told you. To choose my all time favorite Christmas song would be impossible. My least favorite? That's easy. "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer." I don't know who it's by. Don't care. Hate.
But favorite? Impossible.
But...
I guess I could pick something special to me this year. This year is the first year that my daughter is starting to get Christmas. The first year that I could revel and roll around in what it will be like to celebrate Christmas with my children. She blows kisses to Santa every night and spots him on lawn ornaments and Christmas trees and TV shows and yells, "Santa!" She watches Disney's Christmas Sing Along videos on YouTube every night. And her favorite song, her absolute favorite song is "Jibba Ga." Oh wait, that's how she says it. You would know it as "Jingle Bells."
So when we are in the car and she
It's kind of a big deal. It's her first favorite Christmas song. At a point in my life someone referred to me as "Jenny Christmas" so you could say that Christmas is kind of a big deal for me. And so her first favorite Christmas song... well, that's a major big deal for me (as will your first favorite Christmas song be too, Santiago). I should also add that Bublé has SUCH an incredible history in the life of Husband and I, that her song choice makes it even more special.
One day they'll both grow up and (fingers crossed) love Christmas music as much as I do and they will bop along and fall in love with plenty of other great Christmas songs but right now, this year? "Jibba Ga" is it.
Let's just hope they never grow up and ask me to repeat play "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer."
That would be catastrophic.
He's AMAZING!
Wow! You're right it is really hard to pick just one song...still I love the one you were able to single out for this year...Michael Buble is AWEsome!
