Fun morning

We went to a school time musical at a local college. It was called La Musgana and they played the traditional music of Spain. It was performed on original instruments such as bagpipes, wooden flutes, zanfona (hurdy-gurdy). They also played more contemporary instruments like the accordion, guitar, violin and clarinet. It was beautiful music but even more important the musicians were just so entertaining. They really were great with a kid audience and made it so enjoyable and fun. 

During one of the songs, two of the musicians came down from the stage and picked females from the audience to dance with. We sat in the very front row and guess who got picked to dance. Yep you guessed it - ME!!! My kids were just shocked. Their reaction was just priceless. As soon as I got back to my seat, my youngest looked at me and stated "he danced with you." Then he had to come cuddle on my lap as if to say 'this is my mom - hands off.' 

Then they asked for questions. Much to our surprise our youngest raised his hand but being only 5 it was hard to hear his question. So they invited him on stage and up he went. He wanted to share that he could play drums on his legs and proceeded to tap out a rhythm. My oldest was mortified because being 12 everything is embarrassing to him. He just hasn't realized that no one in the audience was laughing at our 5 year old - they all were thrilled and clapped for him. 12 year olds!!! It was just a fun morning.
