day 314:
although A. and I come from completely different backgrounds and countries (which sometimes means that we speak a completely different language) one thing that our families have in common is a love of playing musical instruments and singing.....between us there are quite a few piano players, a few guitarists, some drummers, a banjo, a flute, a clarinet and a cello player.....(we could have an interesting jamming deciding on a song would probably cause some chaos). anyway....music lessons were a big part of my childhood. like learning to: look after a pet, bake a cake, ride a bicycle.....learning to play an intrument (and read music) is definitely something that we will encourage limi to do....
Christmas time is the perfect opportunity for hauling out the instruments and gathering around the piano to sing some carols. in fact a couple of years ago some friends had a 'bring an instrument' party....it was fantastic....I got to play a trombone which is a amazingly satisfying instrument....it gets rid of a WHOLE lot of stress....
over the last couple of days....music has kept appearing in the house....
Happy Christmas Eve!
