The Accordion-Kinda…
April 4, 2011
The desire to make music is undeniable. Our local Cracker Barrel gift shop is a veritable obstacle course of candy, candy, candy, and toys. I was laughing out loud at what Audry chose to play with (in fact WOULD NOT PUT DOWN). If you watch her sway back and forth and try SOOOOOOOO hard to create a song, you will laugh too. Then, when you are done chuckling, consider this. Somewhere in her subconscious, an accordion memory exists. She could not remember the name of the instrument, but she had a sense of it- the rocking motion, the squeezing and key playing- it rang a bell. Children are the sum total of their experiences and exposures- so when creating a musician- make sure the memories are rich and musical. Okay, okay……. I shoulda bought the accordion.
