First.

Today is the day my little Roo has been eagerly waiting for since he turned three. Today, my little boy started his first violin lesson. It was hard to tell though who was more excited: the boy or the mommy. ;D Excitement mixed with stress for me, as I decided to drive to the music studio, unsure whether there would be available parking, and whether we'd make it there on time. Plus the fact that the parent is asked to sit in the lesson, and become a student herself, so she can guide and help with the homework.

Traffic was kinda bad on the way going there. We had a dry run of the route last Sunday, but today I found out that more cars take that route on weekdays so I would have to leave earlier next week. We arrived at Miracle Mall with about twenty minutes to spare, and Roo and I walked to the supermarket for water to kill time.

First thing Khru Om taught Roo was how to bow. Then she showed him two positions: rest and play positions. The rest of the time focused on bowhold. The way she explained the bowhold was very interesting for the little boy. She had bunnies hopping, chocolate-stirring, and kangaroo-hopping that kept the boy smiling and engaged throughout the lesson. She made sure too that the mommy learn it all.

Well, who knows. I just might be buying my own violin soon too :D

Still Here...

Many stories, no time to write. Or maybe I have time but no inspiration. Or maybe I'm just too busy at facebook. :D

Hope you're all well. Hope to update soon.
