Mekhi loves music. He also has a hard time going to sleep at night. Therefore, he often gets to listen to headphones while drifting off. His favorite CD lately has been James Taylor's Greatest Hits. It's completely normal to hear him bust out with "In my mind I'm going to Carolina"!
I didn't realize how much he was listening to the lyrics until he started a James Taylor conversation with me a few mornings ago. It started like this:
"Mom, how does James Taylor go to Carolina in his mind?"
I responded with an explanation of imagination and then we visited some of our favorite places "in our minds."
After he finally understood the concept, he mentioned this:
"Mom, do you know that James Taylor will be your friend if you just call him?"
I chuckled and sang a few lines from the song before he posed this question:
"But Mom, why didn't James Taylor tell us his phone number?"
I couldn't answer that question!
