Maggie: not always but last night...yes.

andi: I wish my school was a fine arts magnet school. I also wish the BA's school was a fine arts magnet school. Then at least we could be guaranteed a reasonable night from time to time....

Chris: something else entirely. Bless her. She lost the timing in the middle, she wasn't the only one mind you. But it does concern me that she wants to take drum lessons...........

Despite the sluggish beginning, the evening sounded lovely! I know the joy of bursting with pride (and a little shock) at seeing those whom you have taught finally shine...my school is a fine arts magnet school which means that kids who do not live nearby and would like to attend need to apply on the basis that they will participate in some form of the arts. So, I attend MANY evenings as you described here...sadly none as a parent, as the daughter was NOT into the performance arts much to the dismay of her musician father! I am amazed by all of the great pieces that your kids played...our musical selections do not usually interest me quite as much as the ones you listed. Well, glad tha BA did her part and all was well in the end!
