I have a new-found thing for Bruno Mars.  And by thing, I mean crush.
(Should I be embarassed by this?)

Up until a few days ago, my only exposure to this pocket-sized dreamboat was his Sesame Street cameo (oooh, oooh…don’t give up)

But then through a series of really fortunate events 
(which unfortunately, I can’t actually talk about…you are just going to have to take my word for it that it is a fairly funny back story) 
my bro-in-law & I won a contest and found ourselves walking through the stage door then sitting in the FRONT ROW of his show last week.

Homeboy played a bunch of covers and totally endearing mash-ups of much-loved songs (think White Stripes + Michael Jackson), but most notably he played songs that made me dance like a college freshman!

I left the concert slightly sweaty (from jamming) and hoarse (from repeatedly screaming: I love you Bruno Mars!).

Upon arriving home, I promptly created a Bruno Mars pandora station…and legally downloaded some of his tunes, which I suppose, is the most ringing endorsement you can give to an artist.

Hazel has been really into Madeline lately.  

For the last week or so, it has been one of her top three picks for her bedtime storytime.

A few nights ago I figured it might be worthwhile to actually explain the plot. I connected the dots between the crying child, rushing ambulance and all that talk of Madeline’s appendix.  She totally got it.

And then, while hanging with my p’s - Madeline came up in the course of conversation.  And in true Papa Boom fashion - he had just the thing to BLOW HAZEL’s MIND.  My dad lifted up his shirt to show Hazel his Appendectomy scar!

Papa had his appendix removed…..JUST.  LIKE.  MADELINE.

When we came across this page (see above) as I read her the book last night - Hazel lit up and launched into a full conversation about Papa’s scar.  She lifted her own shirt to see if she had one.  Then lifted mine to check for the same.  Funny enough, she seemed disappointed not to find a squiggly line on either of our tummies.

I love those moments when stories from books intersect with stories from life.
