As the aunt of an impressionable 9 year old girl, I often find myself watching my every move. When she was 2 and I was 17, I thought it was so cute that she emulated Beyonce, Now that I’m 24 and she is 9, I fear she is growing up too fast. Becoming young woman is hard enough, but it seems that children these days are exposed to too much too young. When I dance I try not to pop too hard, sway too much, turn down the sex appeal, and focus on the fun. I try hard to steer my niece away from the Miley’s and be more like Taylor Swift, but I can’t protect her from everything. She knows how to use the remote control, and she knows how to use the Internet. I check out Clutch Magazine for my daily dose of info, and ran across a posting about Willow Smiths new song “I Whip my Hair”. After rolling my eyes, I pressed play. I soon found myself bopping my head in my cubicle, and I was elated with the hard beats and the youthful fun of the song. Finally, something I can add to my PG playlist that I play in front of my nieces and nephews (and my dad). If you haven’t heard the song check it out. This is definitely my Win of the Week.
