Someday my children will have these dance videos of their mother to show to their children and their children will look away in shame and embarrassment and I will smile down from Heaven and know that I did my job well.
Let’s list out a few things, you know I love a list.
1. I don’t have any clean shorts, so I’m wearing my painting shorts that I also wore when I was pregnant.
2. Yes, they still fit…..bite me.
3. Sorry I said bite me…but not really.
3. I went to the lake, came home and showered, this is the result.
4. My daughter is cooking muffins.
5. I have on zero make-up.
6. I pulled my bangs back with a clip I snagged out of the back of my daughter’s hair.
7. My son is eating cereal.
8. I can barely stand to look at myself, but I laugh every time I watch the flying part, you’ll understand when you see it.
9. This video will embarrass the crap out of at least three people that I know and love.
10. Those people are not my husband or children, they are used to this sort of thing.
11. I love you.

You’re fabulous. Seriously fabulous.
I love how your kids are not even phased by that awesome display of mom-ness. Well done!
Well you managed to do it again. Hollywood calling and this time it’s for the Ellen show. You are adorable!
You are FAB-U-LOUS, April! Keep it rockin!
I love that song! It makes me get up & dance, too…Only I don’t tape myself. Hmmmm…maybe I should…!
Thanks for making me laugh, I needed that
you are a riot! the funniest part is that the kids just keep on with whatever they are doing. thanx- i needed a laugh!
Like!
I needed that. So jealous. I don’t have a dancing bone in my 47 year old body.
Totally made me want to get up and dance
*This* is why I love to read your blog! I love that your kids are so used to it they act like nothing out of the ordinary is happening. It reminds me of our house.
It is validating to know we’re not the only ones! haha
This is awesome. I would have killed my mom had she put this up when I was a kid. Scratch that, I still would–hey, I’m only 25
But my mom still does the Phoebe Run through parking lots (remember that Friends episode?) and the Elf escalator leg thing!
I WANNA DANCE!
You are a wonderfully happy person.
Thanks for spreading the joy.
Love it!
Your dance videos were the first things I saw when I started reading your blog a year ago and I still LOVE them! They make me laugh out loud and I too loved that your kids were just eating cereal and oblivious in the background. Keep ‘em comin!
LOVED IT!! Seriously made me laugh out loud. I totally saw myself in that video. My kiddos, 6, 4 & 14 months just giggle and look away. Soooooo fun!!!
God, I have a girl crush on you. You know how to rock the music video like no one else.
What is the name of this song?
I LOVE when you and/or your family dance ! It’s giving me a breack of joy, it’s making me in a good mood.
You know what ?… In this wold so sad, so agressiv and so full of desillusions, where evrything is able to stress you, thank you for giving me a piece of peace, a piece o light.
Keep on dancing.
I am sooo jealous. I don’t remotely have your rhythm. I wish I had your smooth moves.
Your hilarious, and that music is perfect!! Mind if I steal your moves, lol!!!
Keep it up April – you should be on “So You Think You Can Dance”. Hey, at least try out. I love your dancing videos. Do more.
What a great way to start the day with a smile. That is one of my favorite songs – just inspires dancing. I would if I had HALF your talent
.Your son watching you with that ho hum expression just adds a little something! I show my daughter your dance videos whenever her complaining about her Dad’s “car dancing” gets a little out of hand. See – ALL parents do it!
Your kids are the best. They are just going about their day like you do this all the time and they aren’t embarassed at all. Mine would be cowering and hiding their faces in shame if I actually videotaped me being me.
I love it and do the same thing ALOT….same hair, same 20 year old cut-off painting pants… I have to point out that you are not doing it right. You are actually moving with the rhythm and the beat..you need to get that all wrong to go with the full embarassment effect. Oh, and include the dog. Just sayin.
I love you! Oh how this made me smile…and the flying..Oh girl you so rock! I dance with my kids all time..we have dance parties…I love that song…who sings it???
Made me giggle all three times I watched it! You made my night!
Love it! Oh BTW the new Yoda Tom-Tom youtube is out Hi-larious!
Thank you! You made me smile today. I need to borrow some of your moves!
You are a hoot! Thanks for always giving me a laugh
I love the joy! And, I have long come to the conclusion that why have kids if you cannot embarrass them every now and then?! You can dance and when I’m 80 I will smoke a pipe with vanilla tobacco!
If I remember correctly, you didn’t look preggo at all when you were ready to birth, so bite me!!!! hahahahahahahaha!
Loved the song, who wouldn’t dance to that??
I love your videos. This one was another treat! The kids are so blase, love it!
You just made me laugh out loud – THANK YOU!
I LOVE YOU, APRIL!
Love it, I dance around the house also. Hubby & Child groan, but the dogs love it and join in.
That rocks. Thanks April. Name of song please?
Hi – Thank-you! That made me happy. I haven’t danced enough lately. I wanted to spread the joy on facebook, but I don’t see a ‘share’ anywhere.
Erin,
Just under the video are the Share and Share Alike… buttons. Facebook is the third one over.
Thanks for taking care of business Hon. You’re much better at taking care of this blog than I am.
Alright, duh, never mind…I see it.
Oooh, wow – thanks for responding Clay! I just saw your response after I figured it out on my own. Yay me! But, you’re quick!
You can see how stinkin’ happy you are. your house seems full of joy. You’re very blessed!!!
And you rock!
Thanks I needed that!!
Fantastic! I love how your kids are just walking around doing their thing while you sashay around the room … and the flying part … that was awesome! Too funny!
I love how your children are calmly going about their business in the background, so funny!
AWESOME!!!
I needed to laugh, and your right the flying part is the highlight.
The kids going about their bizness like you are nuts..perfect!
You rock! I also love how your shirt logo matches the walls…
You’re flippin’ awesome!
Having a bad day – getting a summer cold,etc. Came back to watch you dance – a cheerful heart is good medicine.
Absolutely made my day! Totally cool and awesome! Thanks for the smiles!
Rockin’! Seeing this made me feel like dancing…
