This morning I was half-asleep and I reached for the spot where Ripley should have been sleeping. Nothing was there. I jolted awake and realized why she was gone.

Time to groove

I knew it wouldn’t take long. The little bean has learned to dance, just like her mama. In my Dudely capacity as a Dudeist minister and auntie of said bean, I feel it is my responsibility to nurture her development in the cultural arts. There are many important things to learn, such as the words of St. Creedence:

You wiggle to the left
You wiggle to the right
You do the Ooby Dooby with all of your might

Or the verses of Three Dog Night:

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishies in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

After consideration of age appropriateness and beats that aren’t too intense for a one-year-old, here’s the little bean’s groovy time dance mix:

Higher And Higher – Jackie Wilson
Accidentally in Love – Counting Crows
Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I’m Yours – Stevie Wonder
Ain’t No Mountain High Enough – Marvin Gaye
All You Need Is Love – The Beatles
Canned Heat – Jamiroquai
Crazy Little Thing Called Love – Queen
ABC 123 – Jackson 5
Do You Love Me – Contours
Respect – Aretha Franklin
Great Balls of Fire – Jerry Lee Lewis
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da – The Beatles
I Feel Good – James Brown
It’s Oh So Quiet – Björk
Joy to the World – Three Dog Night
Land of 1000 Dances – Wilson Picket
Don’t Stop Me Now – Queen
Dance, Dance, Dance – The Beach Boys
Low Rider - War
Jungle Boogie – Kool and the Gang
Ooby Dooby – Creedence Clearwater Revival
Play That Funky Music White Boy – Wild Cherry
Short Skirt Long Jacket – Cake
Superstition – Stevie Wonder
Three Little Birds – Bob Marley and the Wailers

I think I’m starting her off right. It’s just a matter of time before she’s rocking out to Zeppelin.
