No Longer A Young, Cool Mom
I used to be a young, cool Mom. I used to be in-tune with what was "in" with the kids. I used to be cool. But today I was reviewing the iTunes receipt for the songs Bailey downloaded using her $15 iTunes Valentine's Day gift card. And I have NO CLUE WHAT THESE ARE!
Outside Looking In
Jump to the Rhythm
Our Song
Irreplaceable
Lose Control (Featuring Ciara & Fat Man Scoop)
Temperature
Maybe
Tomorrow
We Both Reached for the Gun

I have the iTunes account set up to come to my email address so I can keep an eye on what music she is listening to - if there are any wierd purchases without consent, etc. And Bailey knows this. She also knows that if there are several versions of a song available - the one marked CLEAN is her only option. So she is mostly a rule-abiding kid...and I'm sure this music is ok...but now I have to go look them up. Further evidence that I'm no longer young and cool but old and prudish. "We Both Reached for the Gun" is what has me most concerned - what sort of a title is that?!
