For our Valentine's present to each other, we bought tickets to see one of our favorite musicians. The concert was Rhett Miller of the Old 97's. It was an intimate solo-acoustic show at the Fine Line. Some of you might remember that Jerry's brother Joe played the Old 97's song "Question" at our wedding reception. So that is a very special song for us and always a treat to hear it performed live. Plus, February 22nd was our 6th wedding anniversary so hearing that song was extra meaningful. ( I love you, Jerry!)
After an excellent show, Jerry and I got the chance to speak with Rhett for a bit (and I got a photo with him). I told him that we had been gearing up for the concert by listening to his CD's while we painted the baby's room. From there he asked a bit about our adoption and then proceeded to give us some marriage advice. It was very sweet of him! He didn't want to talk about himself...he want to know about us! He told us to always take a bit of time for just the two of us everyday no matter what.
I so look forward to exposing my child to various types of music. Music is such an important part of our lives.
