To me, music has never been \u201claborious\u201d but something I was born to do – which doesn\u2019t take away from the hours and hours of music training, practicing and working on my craft. Even though I enjoy it, and we call it \u201cplaying\u201d music, it\u2019s still work \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/div>\n

As we drove to Virginia, I was reminded of 15 years spent on the road with Matthew and our sons. Now THAT was hard work!!! Really hard at times – when kids were not feeling well, when we drove through the night, through snow and ice storms to get them back to school on Monday mornings, or when our vehicle broke down – but it was also magical…<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

It\u2019s hard to believe I\u2019m taking our oldest son, Dante, to college next week!<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are both excited as he really loves animation and film. He, too, worked hard on studying and learning how to apply his natural talent to create something awesome. Dante is already taking jobs and earning money. And I\u2019m very proud of him for that.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I remember how diligently Dante worked on those illustrations when he was just a five-year-old boy. When I published it as a children\u2019s book for his graduation present this past May, I wanted to encourage him to keep following his path and using his talents to make beautiful things that will move people\u2019s hearts.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
