New music added - Aug 2009

Just to update those who care to know, I have uploaded four new songs to my ReverbNation player (check the left side of the page). The other songs are still there, just pushed down the playlist a little.

The first song is a medley of hymns that I arranged for performance at a church meeting this past week (entitled "Sunset Valley..."). The second, called "Samuel tells...," is a Christmas hymn that I arranged for a performance at a church meeting last winter (2008). The third, "Atlantis," is a original song that may not appeal to all, but I've included it for those who may find this type of song interesting. The fourth, "Walking Song," was written by me when Jack was first learning to walk--I'd like to say it helped him walk, but I have no evidence to prove it. All of the songs are not in their finished, professional condition, but I thought it would be nice to add a variety of new music to the player.

Thanks for listening. Comments and feedback are always welcome.

Allie's First Two Days of Pre-K

Last week, Allie started pre-kindergarten at the elementary school near our neighborhood. She previously experienced daytime schooling when she attended a 3-hour, 4-day a week type of pre-K last school year.

The first few days of pre-K were only half-days in order to help the children acclimate to going to school every day. This week, however, is full-day pre-K (well, they finish in the early afternoon). Upon arriving home after the first day of class, Allie reported, in typical fashion, "It was boring." The next day was not so boring, but she did indicate that she is "tired of going to school." Later in the week, she did indicate that she is having fun and generally likes her school class. More reports to come, but we wanted to at least post a few pictures.
