Sometimes as a parent one is asked to endure things that normally would not be asked of you. I have determined that one of those things is being asked to attend a band concert.
A band concert for first year instrumentalists.
A band concert for instrumentalists who have only owned the aforementioned instruments for 9 weeks.
Oh. my. word.

I taped a little clip on my camera and was just playing it for Brenna. Okay, I have to share it . . .
Brenna watched it and this was the conversation:
B:"That was cool!"
Me: "It sure was. You guys really did well for beginners!"
B: "Did you tape us doing 'Jingle Bells'?"
Me: "Uhhh . . .well . . . honey . . . that WAS "Jingle Bells."
B: "Oh. Are you sure?"
Yeah.
Endurance: 1. The act, quality, or power of withstanding hardship or stress. 2. The state or fact of persevering.
We will persevere!

BTDT. The things we do as parents. Your conversation with Brenna made me LOL!
Actually it was MUCH better than I expected after reading the blog. I suppose at this stage the important lesson was could they stay on tempo and follow direction. (? I didn't join band.)
What instrument did Brenna play?
