We All Go


Some of us play with our shoes
some of us squawk and have to be taken out of the room
some of us slouch in our chair
some of us sit at the piano and accompany
some of us try to listen over the squawking

but we all go
to hear Emily play in her end-of-the-year violin concert.
It's just what we do.

A Little Lesson:
I always entertain the idea of just getting in the car and taking Emily to her concert on my own, there would be no arguing in the car, no asking to go out for lunch after wards, no trying to find a row with six empty seats, no asking when it's over or how much longer, no squawking from little people under three feet, just quiet concert going bliss.
But then I remember life is short...and off we go.
