I was listening to a radio station online during GMA week. I remember laughing when I heard the introduction to the song, a story about bath time with Mr. Chapman’s little girls. When he began singing a beautiful acoustic version of “Cinderella,” a wave of memories flooded my mind. I think this song is a wonderful reminder not only for parents but also for children. Sometimes, we teenagers need to slow down and take the time to remember that being a child will not last forever, that our quality time with Mom and Dad will soon be spent. At this point in my life, it’s almost time for me to start my own “great adventure” and leave home to go off to college with huge dreams to impact the world in some way that is still unknown. I can’t listen to “Cinderella” without remembering special memories from when I was a young child and wishing that time hadn’t passed so quickly. I truly hope that “Cinderella” will bring back those memories for everyone who hears it, parents and kids alike.
