Kindermusik Graduation and Theatrical Debute

After almost 7 years in the program, Thomas graduated from Kindermusik this spring.  For his recital, he played a song on three instruments:  "Spring is Coming" on the glockenspiel; "Hot Cross Buns" on the recorder; and "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" on the dulcimer.  We both will miss our weekly trips to Princeton Arts Center and all the wonderful teachers Thomas has had over the years--Miss Sonya, Miss Jodie, and Miss Jennifer.  I think Thomas will especially miss getting rewarded with candy when he plays a song (something Mommy does NOT do at home!)

The obligatory "silly pose."

This spring, Thomas also made his theatrical debut as a hyena in the Jonesborough Repertory Theater's production of "The Lion King."  Performing on stage was a huge challenge for Thomas, though the maniacal laugh of his character seemed to come natural to him!
