We spent a great weekend up in Portland for the Disney Rockin' Roadshow at the end of January. We stayed in one of our favorite hotels, road the MAX, saw a fun show at the Rose Garden, had delicious food, and did a little shopping.
We saw a fabulous children's music show: Gustafer Yellowgold's Show. LOVED it! This is an absurd, fun, cosmic, quirky music and animation show put on by a talented Morgan Taylor. So lucky the show could come to our town and give a fantastic performance.
Here we are at the show. This isn't exactly the best photo of either of us. He looks so grumpy or sleepy here, but actually the camera just caught him at the wrong moment. He had a great time!
We also went to a live quartet performance of music around the world. I am still in awe of how music just speaks to Marek. Speaking of music, I've met with a piano teacher and we've observed a lesson...the next step is parent education and lessons for me. Then Marek will start his lessons. We're trying the Suzuki method and I'm really looking forward to it, although it will be a lot of work for me too!
He's signed up for swim classes and gym class this winter/spring too. I really hope I'm not overdoing it. I don't want him to feel overscheduled, so we'll see how it goes. Work has been keeping me super busy, along with a big home project, and I am already ready for spring - or a vacation!
Marek told me last night that when he grows up he wants to be my daddy, since I lost my dad several years ago. I thought that was so sweet of him. I know someday he will make a wonderful father.
