Every Sunday as we leave church, our girls stand in the grass and wait for me to announce, "Introducing your next American Idol, Miss Ally Hoffman and her little sister Cora." Then they run up to the light pole and sing their audition songs for whomever happens to be walking by.
Cora's favorites include "Sing Sing Sing", "I am a Child of God", and "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star."
Ally usually performs "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" or a variation of "If I Listen with my Heart". Yesterday she tried out a new composition that went something like this: "My heart helps me to live. My heart helps me to breathe. My heart is so special, it helps me not to freeze. . ."
I critique their performances, and I generally tell them they can continue on in the competition. Cora was so excited yesterday that she jumped down from their makeshift stage, ran down the sidewalk, and yelled,
"I'm going to Hollywood!"
