My daughter and I were talking about the Illustration Friday word this week, "journey". I told her that the word reminded me of the band by the same name.
I explained that they did the original version of that Glee song she likes. I then Googled them, so she could see what they looked like.
A picture of the same cassette that I had won in the seventh-grade for the foreign-language-week-poster-contest showed up in the images. This was the one cassette that my older sister and I could agree on. We would listen to it as we fell asleep, one side each night.
I explained what a cassette was. I told her it was what we used to listen to music, in the old days of the nineteen eighties.
Before I could get a Journey video up on the screen, my daughter grabbed her markers and a piece of paper out of the printer tray and said, "That's what I'm doing for Illustration Friday".
