Christmas past Carolling as a family 2000

Christmas Past. I have not always been the shortest member of the family. Here we are, six or seven years ago, performing as a family. How youthful we appear! We performed as a family most recently in April of 2006 in the CCU production of Carousel. Although we age and grow taller; some things do not change. I am still going about the business of raising young musicians and getting people where they need to go.
DSCN0677_0138Originally uploaded by ein feisty Berg.Since my major love in life is raising young musicians; it follows that my children are very important to me. (Or is that; since my children are very important to me: I love raising young musicians?) My youngest, Philip, spent 4 years in the nationally acclaimed Colorado Children’s Chorale, before aging out at 14 years, 5 months – at the end of eighth grade. The crowning finale of his year’s in National Tour Choir was the China tour.
“This is my family, they are a part of me, they make me smile…” so go the lyrics to a moving song arranged for, and sung by, the chorale. Philip is family, he is a very real part of me. Opportunities (like chorale) for my family are why I work. They bring joy to me.
Hello everybody (me, myself, and I); and Merry Christmas! I have finally begun a blog, 12 months after first intending to do so. My Blog inspiration comes from DIL, Sarah (Sermon on the Mount of Laundry), and my son Kev, who first put me on to Sarah’s Blog. I am now going to hibernate with the computer for the next week, consider me “Under Construction.”
