The Foo Fighters and Peter Rabbit

I was introducing family to a friend. I said, 'This is Granddaughter1. She loves mermaids.'
'No, I don't,' GrandDaughter1 declared indignantly. 'I love rock stars.'

Mermaids to rock stars in one step? How did that happen? 

'Who's your favourite?' I ask.
'Foo Fighters.'
'Oh.'
There's nothing more I can add to that conversation. That's her father's influence. I shall have to introduce her to Bruce Springsteen.

Thankfully she still enjoys a game of Peter Rabbit, the one where she and her brother try to steal pretend carrots before Mr McGregor (me) spots them and chases them.

Wow! She moved on quite quickly from mermaids to Rock Stars - and Foo Fighters, to boot! lol

I know! Isn't there supposed to be a bit in-between where she wants to have adventures in boarding school, ride horses or be a ballerina?
