Rock Star

We left Yosemite bright and early at 6am so that we could make it back to a friend's surprise birthday party. Kids still in PJs... we made it just in time to the evening affair and a celebratory "Surprise!". Well, at this party, they had hired a live band to play in their backyard. Next thing I know, Liam was announcing the next gig over the microphone and Emilia, well... she joined the band!





The kid played with the band for the rest of the night, ~1.5 hours, as a little backup stick drummer. In between sets, I heard her ask "How much break time til the next set?" She was committed to her part of drumming away. The drummer even gave Emilia a set of drumsticks for her to keep and practice at home... which of course, the next day, both kids did their own version of rock band to their stuffed friends in our living room.
