So last spring when his band teacher told him he was the loudest trumpet player in the 8th grade band, Daniel was so proud. He told us about it for days. I mean out of everyone HE was the loudest! What a triumphant accomplishment for my son!
So in Daniel's pursuit of making noise, err making a lot of noise, he has found a new way to project his love of noise. It's not an elephant in our house nor is it a fog horn, but it has sounded like both at times. I've never seen such a happy smile on this kid as when he lugged a tuba into the house and announced that the band director let him borrow it so he could practice.
Daniel suddenly has a new passion in life and it is learning bass clef and blowing his little heart out into that tuba. Today he has a half day of school and he can't wait to get home and practice until football practice! Lucky Me. ;-)
