M.J.



So I will start blogging about something really not too important, but something that made me tear........ Michael Jackson..........sniff sniff......... It really did make me cry.
Kevin came home from work and asked me if I had heard the news.
(of course i hadn't. I am a stay home mom who is the last to hear any news ever!)
And then he said that Michael Jackson had died that day. I have to admit that at first I was just a bit shocked. After the kids were fed and in bed sleeping I somehow found myself online watching a you tube video. Then the tears came.
He may have been a bit messed up...but really who isn't. Ok and maybe I wouldn't ever have left my kids with him but.... He was an Icon. A legend. The king of POP.

Ok seriously... how many of you have seen the black and white video. Did you not love the face changing thing and think it was the coolest thing ever (maybe even still do) .
How many of you have mastered the whole Thriller dance?
Teared up while watching Heal The World video?
Hurt your knee caps because you didn't wear knee pads doing the little dance break from Scream?
Had your husband sing to you in the highest voice ever, " Hey pretty baby with the high heels on, you give me fever like I've never everknown. whooo hooo ooooo." grad himself and spin...... ( Yes Kevin does this, doesn't your husband?!)
And the Moon Walk.......need I say more.

I will miss him and Yes, I did tear.
Kevin thinks he is pulling an Elvis. I hope so......sniff.

What really got me was his daughter speaking at his memorial service. When she said that he was the best daddy and then she started to cry. Straight to the heart.
