Kids' Perspectives

Gila and I were watching the Yeshiva Boys Choir DVD today and I casually mentioned that we know two of the boys in the choir and I pointed them out to her. I told her they are our good friend's nephews and that they used to live in Baltimore. Gila got a gleam in her eyes and said, "and their in Yeshiva Boys Choir, and we know them? THAT IS SO COOL!!!!!"

It is somewhat ironic to me that Gila has been woken up on numerous occasions in the morning to watch videos of her uncle who had played on Letterman or Leno the night before. She has seen Uncle Benj on ESPN with the band. We have a freakin Gold Record hanging on our wall. Yet she is totally unphased by any of this. Not that I expect a five year old to have a clue about it, but I just found it funny that she was in awe of the fact that we know two members of the esteemed Yeshiva Boys Choir (two members who she hasn't even met) yet she has no clue that her uncle really can potentially become famous (at least in the music world) and she doesn't care. Funny.
