Spending quality time with my daughter dancing.

We have an electronic keyboard that my daughter loves to turn on and start dancing to. So, every night, when I come home from work, I spent some time with her on our "dance floor" in the basement. I get a little exercise and she gets to spend time with Daddy. And Mommy gets a break. Everybody wins. Listen to this 40 second podcast of us dancing to the automated chord beats of the keyboard.

Today, my daughter had me color in her coloring book.

We colored in a very fun coloring book that my wife bought me called "I Love You, Daddy" with a cover drawn in "children handwriting". She turned to this page of a monkey on a vine and had me color it with different crayons. This was something that I have not done in over 30 years and I have to tell you that it brought back memories of my mother sitting with me at the table. So now, I returned that to my daughter.

Listen to the podcast of us at http://media.libsyn.com/media/lipodcast/coloringmonkey.mp3 - I podcasted the last 5 minutes of our 15 minutes together on this activity. My daughter decided every color that I should use. We also practiced "coloring in the lines". The podcast captured how fun it was for me and her.
