Learning about jazz

jazz concert
We were fortunate enough to hear about a free jazz concert specifically targeted towards young children, with the intention of introducing traditional jazz music and instruments to the kids. It was kind of a blur for me, since I was still on my critical care month and had no sense of time or day for the most part. Most weekend days I was off (and I typically only had one day off per week), we hung out at home or went to the local park, just so I could take it easy. But this event was local and while I was still in somewhat of a daze from being monumentally sleep-deprived, I do remember enjoying this event quite a bit.

Sitting there with A in my lap, watching him clap to the music and seeing M completely mesmerized by all the musical instruments was definitely a highlight of my month. Not to mention listening to some incredibly talented jazz musicians too. The moment it started, I realized I should have called all my friends to come (sorry guys!), but because it was kind of last-minute, and I've been slow to address my email and keep up with staying in touch with everyone, the opportunity came and went all too quickly. I'll be sure to send out a short note the next time I hear about something like this.
