Seneti perched herself excitedly on my knee for the entire concert! She was happily entertained for the entire hour! She loves music and watching all the instruments. She loved seeing the string bass players, and kept pointing and saying, "Yook, big Yitia!" (Connection to Litia's violin.)
Today - ALL DAY - I helped rewrite and edit a grant for our school. I'm thankful that on a regular day I'm teaching in a classroom of children! They beat computers, buggle eyes and headaches any day! It's nice to know that what you do on a regular basis is right up your alley and LOTS MORE FUN than other things! Today I feel sorry for professional grant writers, and those who write grants because they must!
Today we heard that Pres. Obama wants to reward good teachers. Now, that ought to be a proposal to read! Who do you think will write up this lovely legislation? Will those writing it ever have the chance to teach according to their own regulations? How will it ever be valid? It will certainly be interesting! Hoop jumping comes to mind. Practice will be held at 4:00 tomorrow afternoon. However, we need not hold our breath! I can imagine that it will take S-o-m-e TIME to get it all written!
Whatever they do, give BAND teachers the raise they've already earned! Have you ever heard someone learning to blow a trumpet? Sick cow comes to mind! Case dismissed!

Fotu, that sounds awesome. I would personally stick with both the trumpet and percussion. One thing I missed was being able to play an instrument as well as the drums. Anyway, I can't wait to come play with you guys.

Man Fotu, you're talented!
Fotu, I'm glad that you had such a great time at your concert. I think you should keep playing the trumpet also.
