Playing the violin has always been on my bucket list. How can I go through life without experiencing what it feels like to be a violinist? So I borrowed a violin from a school this summer.
Whenever I play, I hear doors slamming. Sometimes I have to change rooms. But it's a small price to pay for getting to pretend you're Itzhak Perlman.
Yesterday I worked on the "Happy Birthday" tune. C, my oldest son, is 22 today!
He helped me cook dinner. As his father later put it..."I think C has discovered garlic."
We had garlic mash potatoes, garlic shrimp and garlic steaks.
I'm thankful for a good day with him.

22 - wow. I'm still thinking of him as 19! Discovered garlic - too funny! I'm glad you had a good time.
I LOVE the violin...more as a hearer instead of a player,though...
Glad you had a good time with your son...great birthday memory!
Happy Post! Violins~ I always wanted to learn. Garlic~ made me giggle. Happy Birthday to your son!
I would love to accompany you on the piano. The more I get to know you, the more similarities. My daughter played violin, Suzuki Method, and I always accompanied her...I love classical music.
How fun!!! You go girl, keep playing and soon you'll be making music!!!
Much love,
Susan
