Take a deep breath

It has been an emotional few days and that's not going to end anytime soon.

So for now, just for now, take a deep breath and listen to a bunch of kids take that breath away.

Recorded last night. A HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA.

Our high school orchestra, in fact.

My kid and her violin are in that musical storn somewhere.

This doesn't come close to what it was like being there, in that auditorium.

I hope you all find some kind of peace this Christmas.

Especially the people of Newtown.

Like my sister-in-law, who lost a neighbor and the daughter of a co-worker on Friday.

But not yet her Faith in God.

Nice.

The light show is cool too.

These guys are playing this music with the ferocity of a rock band.

Yeah, they were hugely excited when they learned they'd be playin it and did not disappoint. They played a few other pieces from the album but the kid hasn't posted them online yet.
