Twenty-three years ago, a beautiful little girl was born. From the get-go, she was sweet, sensitive, and rather shy. She has grown into a young woman of whom I am so proud. She has worked hard to overcome challenges, and recently told me she is trying to face her fears, and asked me if I would write her story and share it here on the blog, in hopes she can inspire others through their own struggles. Although I offered to publish an auto-biographical piece for her, she wanted me to write her story from my perspective. At her request, and with her approval of this post, I share the following:
The phone rang, and the social worker on the other end informed me that a baby girl had been born 10 weeks early and drug-exposed. She wasn't ready to be released from the medical facility where she was currently staying, but would we be interested in being her foster-to-adopt parents? Of course!

I love the violin favorite piece is Vivaldi Winter- :)
ReplyDeleteVivaldi compositions are lovely.
DeleteI found violin so difficult. I think its the no frets thing... Where do I put my fingers? None the less such a glorious instrument!
ReplyDeleteMe, too! With piano, what you play is what you get. With violin, just a slight shift of the finger can make your note go flat (or sharp). However, I also agree that the violin is a beautiful instrument! One of these days, I need to take mine out of its case and practice!
DeleteThe violin not only sounds beautiful but also looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYou are right; it is a beautiful instrument in looks as well as in sound.
DeleteGrowing up I always wanted to learn to play the violin. I begged my mother for one but since she had hated practicing she was convinced that I would hate it and that it would be a waste of her money.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry. It's never too late, though! :-) I didn't study violin until my daughter did.
DeleteMy dad's dream has always been to play the violin. I was horrible at the flute and all music. Love this though.
ReplyDeleteHe should pursue his dream. :-)
DeleteValuable skill, playing the Violin. Personally haven't a musical bone in my body, but I admire those who can get music out of such a difficult instrument.
ReplyDeleteIt's not an easy one, that's for sure.
