Some folks would say, "Listen to her brag!"
I'm not bragging, it's just the facts.
Our dear daughter and son in law worked hard taking violin lessons from tender ages. Even when Amanda wanted to give it up she persevered and finally made it to youth orchestra where she really met Joshua. Even though they'd taken lessons from the same teacher, they didnt really know each other until orchestra and then quartet practice,
and then , well, 5 years later, they were married! Over Christmas they serenaded us with their beautiful music.
Music... it brings people and hearts together as well as feeds the soul.
