My first baby's last show is this weekend. She started when she was 9 and now she is 18 and hanging up her clarinet. A 9-year band career is coming to an end and we were there to see it last night:-) We are so proud of her!
We went thru this, too. In fact, I've still got the clarinet stored in the back of the closet. A bittersweet time, for sure! And PS: Please pop over to participate in Sx3 today. We're in serious Donald Trump Mode!

That is amazing she did that for so long. Will there be tears? I know I would give some tears.
Bittersweet huh? That is great that you were there for it. Maybe she will pick it up again - 9 years is a long time to leave for good. :)
Wow! 9 years. That is dedication. I don't think you have seen the last of her clarinet!
What an accomplishment! That is great :)
Oh, I bet it was bittersweet!!!! Is she going to continue to play anywhere else?
That's awesome! I know you're so very proud of her. Happy Friday my dear.
She'll do great—and so will you.

I bet there are tear in your eyes.
Oh how sweet. I bet she plays beautifully after 9 years.
Happy Friday!
Good on her... you must be so proud.
I bet she keeps playing, though. :-)
I hope you're planning on getting it on videotape.
Bittersweet! I know you are very proud of her!!!
Oh, that is so cool. So glad you were there to watch and hear.

:) 9 years.. that is dedication! Good for her. :)
Congrats to her! 9 years is a loooong time!
Oh, how touching.
Awww! That's bittersweet. My son just started playing the trombone (he's 12) and I hope he continues through high school.
Congrats to your daughter on a great nine years of making music! I'm glad you could be there for her.

I'm sure you will have lots of great memories of her playing. 9 years was a long stretch, she is very dedicated. :)
Oh I hope she continues playing on her own for her own enjoyment. I so regret not keeping up my music.
Awesome! Hard to believe time passes so quickly, isn't it?
