Playlists, Auntie Style

I had been musing this post for a while, but been lazy about doing it. But when I saw the post from my often inspiring friend, I had to complete the post.

In January, the Fashionista turned 4. Wanting to give her something special, and try to keep her from becoming a Hannah Montana fan, I decided it was time to make her a CD. And I could make her one each year for her birthday, as a special treat from Crazy Aunt G. Since she was only four, I focused on lots of peppy songs, that could make her dance. Of course, no mix by me would be complete without a little Eric Clapton. And Fashionista needing to learn her Jersey roots brought out the Bon Jovi fan. And I think it worked, at least a little. Because now, even though she watches Hannah Montana, she asks for the Indigo Girls in the car.

So here's the 2008 Mix for Fashionista.
