Laying Trumpet Aside (Dec, '06)

I haven't posted about my music but it has been a big part of my life. I began playing trumpet in grade school and have continued all these years. My trumpet put me through college and paid bills in my younger days.  I have played through eight full-term pregnancies with little trouble and my music has carried me through three devistating miscarriages, several rounds of pneumonia, and even a bout of Bells Palsy, (that was interesting)/  I'm no virtuoso (ha!) but I'm adequate for my small town. Now I'm laying my trumpet aside. This makes me very sad but for right now, it's the right decision. I'm really feeling it during the Christmas season though. 
Now I will focus more on my children's music. I hope they will be blessed as much as I have been through the years and maybe I will perform again but right now, my audience is my family.
