AS MOTHER AS DAUGHTER

It's maybe unfair the title of my post because Jano and I are very much alike, that's why I think it is my duty to clear things. When I was a little girl, I used to sing very old boleros. "Muñequita Linda" and "Perfidia" were part of my repertoire. A few days ago Jano was laughing as he said "no...she doesn't sing cumbia, nor reggaeton, nor pop music. Valentina sings 'Non, je ne regrette rien' ". Just as their parents, she loves Christmas and Halloween. She's got a lot of toys, Barney, Uniqua from the Backyardigans, and many others, but she ADORES this ribbon skeleton which used to be part of our Halloween decoration. She hugs him, kisses him and calls him "Jack". If we have guests, sometimes she gives the skeleton to them to be kissed too (It happened last week with my dad and brother). Anyhow, reincarnation? clonation? no, just simple heritage.
