Mallet Specialist Christian

I love marching band.  I love it for all the fun I had in it, for all the things I learned in it,  all the friends I had in it, and that my kids all want to be in it.  I have a friend who thinks I am missing out on the football because I really only go the the High School Games to watch the Band.  The best part of watching the Band is Christian.  I am amazed at his skill, passion, and concentration.  It is fun to watch him with his peers because in uniform he is part of the group and forgets that I am his mother.  I sit during the halftime show and am amazed at how much closer to being a man he is than the little boy I sometimes think he is.  


 Here he is in the stands at ASU Band Day holding a picture of our dentist! (long story)
