Listen,,, being a dad rules in so many ways but recently I've been able to revel in one of the Ultimate Forms: watching my kid Participate in The Arts. She's been a part of a little choir that meets every week for this last semester, and the other week they had their concert and it was Perfect. Today Em texted me a video of Goose singing with them outside of our local[1] museum--doing one of those "choir sings in a public location because that is Good" things--and. Yeah!! she's doing it! That's Art, baby!! that's my art baby!!
Her preschool put on a little play of nursery rhymes for a nursing home; Goose was little miss muffet and took great delight in screaming and running away. This also ruled. This was also art baby!! As I previously posted, she's been Making Things; she's been experimenting with drawing and paint more and more; overhearing her play more and more complex social situations with her toys is a joy. She's so cool!! She's only like 5!! She'll keep doing cool things??
Life is honestly not all good and definitely not easy for me in various ways right now but also life is good! Watch it grow! Make it grow; do Art
uh. relatively speaking ↩︎
