It's very bizarre that you all have mentioned this.
Lesi told me when he was three that he wanted to take xylophone lessons. So I searched frantically and actually found a xylophone class for 3-4 year olds. well being the rascal that he is....he got kicked out of the class and well xylophone is no more.....At that time I had an impulse to learn how to play the violin. A serious and very obessive impulse to learn (it's still very strong). I studied music many years (piano) and ahve been away from it for a very long time. Somehow I felt as though this impulse was there for him. Since he is such an anxious and reluctant child (sto start new things) I felt as though it was a sign for me to learn....to inspire him to want to learn. I read you posts a little earlier and thought of this impulse. I asked him "If mommy would take violin lessons, what would you say???" He said "I would say Great going mommy and I would want go with you." So I asked, "what, to see me play?" and he answered "no. to play with you".
Just this year that past a music school called me (phone soliciters) and asked me if there was anyone in the house that would like to learn music. I signed him up but then circumstances (with the move and his therapy...he has asperger's) didn't allow it since there just wasn't enough time.
He has an outstanding voice for a little guy and loves to mimic Alecia Keys...He voice is VERY strong and comes from the gut...yet kind of off tune and squacky....lol which is normal since he isn't trained in music...lol
We were in the car the other day and some heavy techno was playing....he told me to keep it and he sat there bobbing his little head to the music. He had this hat on sideways and looked like one of those little rapper guys. I then got this flash of him being sixteen and turning tables...lol
All of this would really make sense and the comment that the guide (if it was a guide) had said "I tired to call you several times but you never got my messages" would make sense in that regard. It's like every chance that came up was just kind of left in the dust and not realy taken into consideration or taken for granted.
Today I realised that I have to sign him up for his camp. He will be going to special needs camp this summer as last year was just horrible. As I haven't signed him up yet, maybe I should research a music camp as well as violin lessons for me!!!!!....hmmmm...food for thought!
Thanks for telling me about the Savannah music festival and the Georgia relation (also that there are recordings here in Toronto). It's all sooo clear!
ONE MORE THING!!!!
Today, my father told me that there is a woman calling me daily at his house! Since we have the same last name and the same first initial, this often happens(people calling for me at his place). But what is strange about this call is that she won't leave her name or number....and get this....she is calling from GEORGIA (can tell by the area code)!
Ok....Spirit is really talking VERY loud right now.......I better start to listen eh folks?
