9 ~ the bub = the next dave grohl?

listening to the bub play his recorder while my mom played the piano today was pretty priceless. it seems that an affinity for playing musical instruments may have indeed skipped a generation, thankfully. my mom plays the piano beautifully and sean's dad and uncles are talented guitarists ~ sean and i like to listen to music, but that's where our affinity ends. how great that lyle might be good at it - that he might not complain every day that he has to practice scales on the piano! we could be total band parents - going out to clubs at age 50 watching lyle play drums for some alternative country punk band - taking him for his first tattoo when he turns sixteen - painting his fingernails black - or lugging amps, a drum kit and his bandmates' guitars from dive to dive ~ oh, i must be dreaming! that would be so kick-ass cool :) we're keeping our fingers crossed.
