Violin Concerto No.1

Chris and I are gushing with pride.  Jayden has given his first orchestra performance (and he is only in kindergarten).

He has made so much progress in such short time.  I still vividly remember the first time Jay serenaded me with his "nail on chalkboard" rendition of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", I got goosebumps and teary eyed but not in a good way.  Flash forward 10 months later, Jayden's recital still gave me goosebumps and moved me to tears but it was all good.

Our little man's transformation has been beautiful and awe inspiring.  What else will this boy be capable of?  At the start of kindergarten he was practically tone deaf and now he is playing concerts.  Just goes to show that he will never cease to amaze us.

The Program: 
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Variation A
Lightly Row
(notice Jayden's name near the bottom left)



Here are some photo stills:

I know Jay dedicated his performance to his surrogate family, who were cheering him on with banners and huge smiles.  Thanks for all the support Lillie, Lulu, Auntie Nadja, and Auntie Julia.  We love you!
