I rarely write about my daughters here (I have 3). But occasionally, one of them does something so extraordinary that I get the OK to post about it. So here goes—
Greta (my baby, but now 23) just released her first album.
The title is “Baby Fat,” and it’s fantastic.
I hope you will check it out on Spotify.
So far, my favorite songs are “We Both Know,” “Sunshine,” and “Just My Luck!”
If you listen, let me know which one you like best—

P.S. Writing out those 3 song titles created a comma conundrum for me.
Originally, I had written, “Just My Luck!” “We Both Know,” and “Sunshine.”
That is correctly punctuated according to the rule in the Chicago Guide that you should never put two punctuation marks next to each other.
(So I didn’t write, “Just My Luck!,” “We Both Know,” and “Sunshine,” even though that is the order of my faves.)
But I thought it looked strange without the comma before the first item in a list, so I changed the order of the songs in my sentence to avoid the issue.
Did you know about the never-put-two-punctuation-marks-next-to-each-other Rule?
