So I was going to show you all kinds of stuff this week...some Thanksgiving shots, some new albums, etc, etc...BUT last night my big kid earned first place for his musical composition in his school-wide art competition! I couldn't be prouder and I so wish I was technologically skilled enough to somehow post my (incredibly sub-par) recording here so you all could hear it. I get teary-eyed every time he plays it...of course that might have something to do with the fact that I can absolutely not fathom how he can do these things or where he gets his skills (ok, I do have an idea, his great, great uncle was a concert pianist and such...aren't genetics amazing?!). So in honor of this momentous occasion you get to see some photos of him doing one of his favorite things...
These were taken less than a year ago and already he looks like a completely different guy. I mean, I know little kids change a lot and quickly, but sometimes I forget that works for big kids too. Guess I better take more pictures of him....won't he love that?!
OK, enough about my fabulous kid for now. You can be sure that I will let you know how it goes at the district-wide competition.
