My favorite musical when I was a little girl was the Wizard of Oz. I knew every song and I loved the portrayal of the characters too. I tried to see what was unique about each and every one of them and I even tried to pretend I wore Dorothy's shoes. I tried to skip like her and I even tried to find all the dogs in my neighborhood that looked like Toto. I was so wrapped up into the fantasy of that musical and it wasn't until just last week that I jumped on the bandwagon again.
I was driving down the road and I was trying to remember all the lyrics to the Wicked Witch Song. You know the one! The one where Dorothy stumbled upon the Wicked Witch of the West and her ugly toes and striped socks curled up beneath the house. Oh I just get so frustrated when I can't remember the lyrics to my favorite childhood songs. I speed dialed my sister Melanie and we began to sing together until we could piece the lyrics back together for one of the funniest moments I have had in a long time. "It really was no miracle. It happened just like this..." And we went on and on and on singing every song we could recall until we laughed ourselves silly. Golly, I just loved that movie! And I love to share funny memories with my sister Melanie too. I wonder what the other people driving beside me were thinking....hahahah...I love my sister THIS MUCH!!!!
