Euph and Baby

Ok, so a couple days ago I busted out my euphonium to play a couple solos for the recordings I’m making. (See Yesterday’s Post) It just so happened to be Miles’ very first time hearing a euphonium, so Betsy broke out the camera to snap a few pics of his reaction.

What the…? Img 9714

Hey, what is that? Img 9703

WOW! It’s LOUD! Img 9708

Wait a sec, can I try? Img 9690

And being an almost 1 year old, he just had to explore every nook Img 9656

and cranny Img 9662

And of course, I had to show him which button to mash Img 9649

He was just so curious and wanted to know everything about it Img 9690

He giggled a little while I was playing, particularly on the low notes. I think he liked the way they felt. He wrinkled up his brow a little too, like he does when he’s trying to figure it all out. He’s just such a sweet and expressive guy!

Betsy and I are so lucky to have such a wonderful little boy to share our home with.

Much Metta,

John
