Lauren does not like to listen to music in the car. I don't understand it, but I do know that nearly every time Ella and I want to listen to the radio or a CD (with the occasional exception of the Curious George soundtrack) she claps her hands over her ears and yells over the volume, "My ears can't hear it!" Sometimes we take turns between silence and music, but most of the time I require her to endure.
Well, today, for the first time in her life, I turned on the radio and heard Lauren's voice say, "Turn it up." The song? Oye Como Va. From my fisheye mirror I could see her, looking out the window, head tilting, little fists pumping up and down to the Latin beat. "Oye como va/mi ritmo/bueno por gozar/mulata . . ."
Must be the Malta in her veins.
