I love that Dexter enjoys and appreciates my music. It makes things so much nicer when we get to hear a song I like on repeat, rather than I've Been Working on the Railroad, for example. About a year ago, I heard The Walker for the first time on the radio and I just loved it. It is so catchy, starting with whistling ... Doo doo do doo. In fact, Dexter calls it the Doo Doo Doo song. It is so catchy, in fact, that it went totally mainstream, appearing in commercials, movies, and TV shows. But we heard it early on :)
We'd be driving around somewhere and it would come on the radio. That first Doo Doo whistle would start up and Dexter's face would light up and he would get so excited. It was the cutest thing. Sometimes I would play it just to see his face. He also figured out how to find it on my phone and whenever he had the chance he would play it and bop around. The week Lila was born, we were in the hospital getting pre-registered. He excitedly asked the staff if they knew the song and then found it on my phone and played it for them. It reminds of those last few months when it was just me and Dexter, before Lila arrived. Those were special, fun filled months with my first and only child, full of laughter, cuddles, and Doo Doo Doo.
