Two and a half years ago, I took Jack to see Peter and the Wolf. And ever since then, Jack has been asking to take violin lessons. I looked into it while we were living in Greenville, but the lessons were quite a hike and unreasonably expensive. Atlanta has a bit more to offer, so Jack took his first lesson yesterday. When the instructor asked him why he wanted to play violin, he told him about seeing Peter and the Wolf and loving Peter's part in the orchestra. The instructor looked at me with a pretty funny expression. He was delighted to hear that violin lessons were Jack's idea and not just Jack's pushy mom's. So, every Tuesday will find Jack getting closer and closer to his goal of one day playing Peter's part in Peter and the Wolf.
