New Year Uke
Isn't she beautiful? My lovely parents gave me the gift of music for Christmas this year and I am beyond grateful. The sound that come out of this instrument is incredible and makes me want to play all of the time. If only there were that many free hours in the day.
I enjoy the fact that I can share the excitement and affection for the ukulele (specifically) and for music (generally) with my parents. They have enjoyed learning how to play it very much and my mother is REALLY good. She doesn't brag about it and would never get up in front of a large group and play on her own, but I'll say it: she's REALLY good. I like that she can teach me things and I enjoy the way she lights up when she talks about playing the uke.
I just discovered (according to Wikipedia) that the word "ʻohana means family in an extended sense of the term including blood-related, adoptive or intentional. It emphasizes that family are bound together and members must cooperate and remember one another." In my experience, that describes my experience of picking up the ukulele to a T.
The power of the small, but mighty jumping flea strikes again!
