Tonight is the big outdoor concert night for my Xylophone debut. I'm ready to get started.

  • Tonight is the big outdoor concert night for my Xylophone debut.  I'm ready to get started.
  • Every note sounds a little different.
  • Sometimes you can hit two keys at the same time.
  • There...how am I doing ?
  • So, do you like it ?   Really !?
  • So Dad, when do I get started on the concert ?
  • Great !  First I get to eat dinner outdoors and then bubbles and then my time in the spotlight.
  • Tonight I'm having some pears and phad thai shrimp from the Grandparents down the street.
  • Dad's really really good at bubble blowing.  I can't wait to try that too.
  • I'm ready to play but I need to get cleaned up first.
  • I'm ready now !  I have cleaned up and I practiced earlier today !
  • Wow.  That sounds just like it did in practice today.  Wait...even better.
  • And again.  I've got to concentrate - everyone is watching and listening.
  • They like it !
  • Up and down the keyboard we go.
  • I'm so happy.  Everyone is clapping and smiling.
  • Almost finished and it's going so well !
  • Thank you.  Thank you.  It's been a pleasure.
  • Ruth takes a break after her debut with G Papa K.  Bed time is not far off.  It's been a perfect day except for that blood draw at the Doctor's office.
