You just crack me up. In the very best way.

Huge congratulations on your one year mark!

Thank you, Christa! I clearly had a lot of fun with this one.
I LOVE when caucasian girls rap, we got SOUL too sista! It may take a while for Hollywood to catch up with you, so I’m officially awarding you, your videos, and blogs their own STAR on the coaches walk of fame. Looove you and your personnas, every fun one of ‘em!!
My very own star?!!! Aw, thanks baby! Love YOU and all of YOUR personas. I know you’ve got a few up your sleeve, too.
Congratulations! A year of blogging and videos — it’s really quite a body of work.
I was thinking this morning about your post “The worst advice I ever gave,” and how gutsy you are. I’m lucky to know you
That was a gutsy post, wasn’t it? HA! I’ve written so many of ‘em, I forget what I’ve even put out there! Thanks, Max. And I think I’m pretty lucky to know you, too.
Joy, I am almost in tears over here. Both in happiness and laughter. This is the most brilliant video I have ever seen and you are a freakin’ rock star. Here is to another year!

TOO FUNNY, Katie! Well, let me warn you, the chorus gets really stuck in your brain. I kind of made it that way on purpose — to drive all my favorite people crazy.
Not my style of music, sweetie, but you are adorable! Congratulations on your first anniversary of blogging.

Thank you, honey.
Congratulations on your one year anniversary. Thanks so much for continuing to provide interesting, quality content. This second blog song shows how multi-talented you are and for me it speaks to the fact that you are so diverse in what you care about and address in your blogs! The “candy” you give us through video, dance and music are like little gifts that we open! I appreciate the work and trouble that you go to in creating this blog.
Aw, what a beautiful comment, Mom. Thank you so very much. LOVE YOU!
You just get better and better and I can’t wait to see NEXT YEAR’ S Blog Song. I think we are all gonna be able to say “–I knew her when—–!“
Congrads and keep it going, Joy. You make a lot of folks laugh A LOT!

My blog crush on you just got about 1000x stronger. You.are.awesome.

I look forward to another year of Joyousness (is that even a word; well it is now!!). You make me smile, laugh, dance, and think. Thank you so much for putting yourself out there for all of us to share. Love ya.
Love YOU, Rita! And maybe I should add “blog rapper” to my list of official credentials. What do you think? It’s pretty important!
Hahahahaha! I am glad I put down my hot cocoa before I pressed play. You are one classy gal. I love it.
