More music!!

This is Mallory and her step dad playing at her annual piano recital just last weekend. The camera messed up so I'm afraid it starts mid piece but the other two selections should be just fine. Enjoy!

A little reminder


Singing, week after week, at our church and offering wonderful music is a lovely thing. I think we all get a little jaded when you are doing something week in and week out. You forget that, to others, music is uplifting and can touch people like nothing else can. We too need to be reminded to enjoy the gift of music.

This week has been a struggle. Hectic schedule, hormonal shifts that are wreaking internal havoc....Anyway, on one particularly black morning I came downstairs and found an envelope on the kitchen table with my name on it.

Dear Rose,


The beauty of your voice singing the Sunday morning anthem lingers in my memory.


Thank you for this gift, that you might not know you gave. 


I regret, as a visitor, that the sanctuary was not filled to hear both the music and Peter Smith's encouraging message about creativity and choices.


Again, thank you for the gift you shared.


Best Regards,

Wow. It is a gift and thanks for such kind words. Made my day!
