Art and Lew's Mom is a Singer?

This summer I played in an orchestra for the Durufle Requiem. During the dress rehearsal I thought to myself, "This is fun, but what I really want to do is sing in that choir..." They were having auditions and I got in! I'm waiting for someone to realize I don't really know what I'm doing, but so far so good!


Art came to the concert for the last two pieces, but when we got to a loud part he started crying and Mike took him out to find Ben and Lewis in the lobby. The first thing he said to me when he and Ben found me after the concert was, "Mama! Mama! The music was really loud and I didn't like that!" He asked me why the music was so loud. He also did some sweeping motions with his arms and asked me, "What was the man doing with his hands?"


I was lucky to have a great, supporting audience for my first venture into choir. My mom, Lewis and Art's aunts Emily and Ashley, their uncles Mike and Josh, grandma Bubbe, my stepmom Joanna, my aunts Nance and Deb and my uncles Brian and Dick. Plus a floating Ben, Art and Lewis in the lobby. Wow!!! Cello, you may not be seeing me for a while. I'm having too much fun!
