Grandparents' responsibilities

Among the many responsibilities that Grandparents have is that of showing proud support of their grandchildren by attending every recital, concert, tournament, game, open house, etc. in which one or more of your grandchildren is taking part.  Tonight was one of those events.  The Mission Open School had a performance of their two bands and the choir.  Considering their music maturity, it was definitely an impressive concert.

It certainly was an impressive attendance as every set in the multi-purpose room was taken and every person seated in the room had his or her attention rivited on the choir or band that was performing.  I expected something like the scene out of "Music Man" where the kids are trying to learn the "Minuet in G" by using the  "think" method. It doesn't matter whether it is good or bad, simply that  OUR son is  playing an instrument.  Tonight we heard kids playing well because they've practiced, not just thought of the tune.

Thank you, Tim, for inviting Grandma and me to your concert.
