Passing on the Love for Music

Well, I can say that I am a music lover and music is my life.

I have been a fan of it ever since the world begun for me. My mother said she used to listen to different songs from different artists like ABBA, The Carpenters, Air Supply, just to mention a few, and she can't believe that she was able to bring up a kid who has so much love for the said craft. Well, I'm not the only one who is like this because my three younger sisters are music lovers, too. I think it's safe to say that it runs in the family.

I love to sing and I do play the guitar but I'm not an expert, though. My sisters however are just fantastic. They can play the guitar and other instruments. I might have won 2nd place in more than a couple of contests, but my sisters were able to win grand prize. I don't envy their achievements though, instead, I am so proud of them. My heart leaps a beat whenever they practice at our residence and I can't help but be happy. I am so excited to watch them sing and play the instruments and my ears are blissful to hear each note that they play.

Now that I have a daughter, I am doing my best to pass on the legacy of being a music lover. She's only 10 months old now but I am trying to influence her with my type of music. I play Meg & Dia songs almost everyday and I love it when I watch my daughter enjoy the music by dancing or waving her hands to the tune. It makes me feel proud that she is liking the type of music that I love the most.

As a music lover, I really wish my daughter will also love music as much or more than I do. I really hope she can sing and play instruments in the future so she can enjoy it even more. For now, I just have to watch her grow and see if she will turn out like that.
