Uncle Roger's Notebooks of Daily Life
My life is, to me, ripe with frequent challenges, occasional successes, spontaneous laughter, adequate tears, and enough *life* to last me a lifetime. To you, however, it surely seems most pedestrian. And therefore, I recycle the name I used previously and call this my Notebooks of Daily Life. Daily, because it's everyday in nature, ordinary. These conglomeration of events that are my life are of interest to me because I live it, perhaps mildly so to those who are touched by it, and could only be of perverse, morbid curiosity to anyone else. Yet, I offer them here nonetheless. Make of them what you will, and perhaps you can learn from my mistakes.

Jared's latest television favorite is Singin' In The Rain -- the classic musical with Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds, and Donald O'Connor. Luckily, we brought it with us to Tahoe because he must have watched it at least a dozen times lying on the couch. I'm not exactly sure why a three-and-a-half year old kid would be so into it, but I'm also not exactly surprised.
His maternal grandmother is the director (supposedly retired now) of a musical theatre company, a dancer and dance teacher, actress, and singer. His maternal grandfather is a jazz pianist who played piano and keyboards for all the big shows here in town, including Singin' in the Rain. His mother taught tap dance for about a dozen years or so before becoming a school teacher. On the other side, his paternal grandmother was a pianist (classical) and while his paternal grandfather claimed only to play the radio, he was certainly enthusiastic and knowledgeable about music. I've taken tap (before I met Rachel, even) as has his Uncle Harry and Uncle Daniel.
I guess it's not surprising at all, really.

I don't know how J will turn out, but if he's anything like my sister at his age regarding movies he'll watch that thing till the DVD burns itself out (if you doubt this is possible just let him keep at it!). With my sister it was Annie and The Sound of Music. I never thought I could get tired of a movie, but... I did. |

Singin' In The Rain, eh? Wow. Considering the crap that's shelled out by TV companies and called "children's entertainment", he's picked a good'n. Clever little chap. Is he feeling better? |
