Hello Everybody! May today's post find you ALL safe, healthy, strong, and singing this first month of 2021.
I took a break from writing over our two week holiday break. To all celebrating Dawali, Chanukah, Christmas, Kwanza, and any other Holiday throughout the year, may we all join in LIGHT and LOVE. I hope that the healing of America has already begun. Preaching is not my goal. Keeping families uplifted in the common goal of supporting their children's learning and brain neuroplasticity through music, is my goal. Providing, supporting, and enhancing the experiences and joy in family music making is my goal.
Last Wednesday, January 6, 2021, I had every intention of writing this Blog, wishing everyone well, and welcoming everyone back to class. In the safety of my own house, I witnessed the attack on America's house. I must speak the truth here today. Children can smell authenticity, and if I am to remain authentic here today, I must publicly denounce the actions of last Wed., Jan. 6, 2021, and every lie, and rally that led up to it. It is with great gratitude to our Congress, and the rule of law that still exists in our democracy, that I sit here today watching the 2nd Impeachment of the 45th President.
Our children deserve better. All children deserve better. Grown-ups, I have applauded you in my heart since 2003, when I first started offering Music Together® as Mommy, Music, and Me, inc. through today as Music Together with Music and Me. These past ten months you have all shown an extraordinary resilience and determination by showing up. Our healing work is not done, it may just be beginning.
Our children and music remain our common ground. Thank you. ~Wendy
