Tiny Talent Time

We spent the afternoon at the school talent show today. One of our three kids were performing. Randy brought in his complete drum kit and instantly became the coolest kid in school. He did really well, backing up the choir on drums for four songs and playing bongos for one kid who did a rap song. The music teacher asked me this question: What's the difference between a musician and a savings bond? The answer is that a savings bond matures! I'm proud of my son's musical talent but hope that he doesn't put all his eggs in one basket. Take it from me, A 30 year old wanna-be rock star is not a great provider for a family. But as an 11 year old, it's a worthwhile dream. One thing I can tell you is that on the popular-o-meter, his arrow right now is pointing to ten! I'm afraid I'll start to see female groupies hanging around soon.
