Kitchen Dance

Mom → Daughter

Birthday · Pop

Happy birthday, kiddo — twelve! I know you've started caring more about what everyone thinks, and that's okay, that's growing up. But can I tell you my favorite version of you? It's the one who choreographs whole dance routines in the kitchen when she forgets I'm watching — totally goofy, totally fearless, totally you. Don't ever lose that girl, okay? The world needs her. I love exactly who you are — on the days you feel it and the days you don't. I love you, sweetheart. — Mom

Song story

Background

Sarah is 31 and watching her daughter Amelia turn 12 — the age Amelia's started caring what people think, hiding the goofy kid who still choreographs whole dances in the kitchen when she forgets anyone's watching. Sarah never wants her to lose that kid. For Amelia's birthday she made a fun, empowering pop song built around the girl her daughter is when no one's looking.
