A week or so ago Annie got the idea in her head that she wanted to sing the reprise of “For The First Time In Forever” from Frozen as a duet with Heather. As cute as it was to see Annie talk about singing the duet, I didn’t think there was much chance it would happen as it’s a fairly complicated song with overlapping parts. Well, to my surprise I came home from work the other day to hear the two of them in the kitchen singing away. What amazed me was how well Annie knew the song, and was able to sing her part without getting confused by Heather’s singing. I know, I know… I’m her Dad… but I was impressed!
I asked Annie and Heather if they’d let me film them singing this, and Annie was very excited by the prospect. Annie being Annie, though, she wanted to make a show of it. This meant she did it wearing her Frozen dress and insisted that Heather wear a “cape” (which Heather made out of random material).

It was pretty awesome (and surreal) to hear my girls singing together like this. I’ve got a feeling this is just the first of many.

Oh, this just made me cry! :-))))
It’s the same thing here with my daughter. Only there’s a heat dome hovering over us here in Brazil right now and she *insists* on wearing a cape all day long.
Kayla says:
OMG this was the cutest thing EVER!!! When you guys got to the overlapping parts I was SO impressed with how well Annie did that my hands just started flailing around like crazy! How AMAZING is this girl!!
traci says:
That was FANTASTIC!!!! My 14 year old daughter watched with me and told me to tell you that 1. Heather sounds just like the girl in the movie and 2. Annie is “the bomb”
Made our very early morning!!!!
