You remind me of the pleasure toddlers get from live music either by dancing or by being enthralled and transfixed. I expect you are totally thrilled to be a fulltime grandma to a toddler now. If you can make a market, bring the family. I’ll email you some dates and times.
This chat gpt4 essay is killing me. It’s been a super intense learning curve and I want to be sure I don’t misrepresent the reality out of lack of knowledge. So I read more, but the more I read the bigger it gets. I gotta put a cork in it and trust to charitable readers.
Still searching for Ed Sullivan or Mr. Tambourine Man after all these years.
Balance, eh? You got me thinking from your posts the past several months, Matt, I need to do more in this newsletter to communicate how important a second life opening doors to rapture is for stewards of literacy and learning for children. You work hard in your space to lift up this theme for school leaders doing the heavy lifting of administration and instructional leadership subscribing to your Substack. I wrote the piece on the harmonica a while back as an indirect way to speak to this theme. My friend and former student Scotty told me at a job one evening when I was introducing an obscure Dylan song that I can’t help myself I can’t stop teaching even when I’m playing a gig. I asked him whether that is a good thing. He said it was inevitable, a simple twist of fate.
Great to see you! Somehow I will show up and wave at a market this summer! Looks like great fun.

I was starting to wonder where you were; still rockin in the free world I see.
I hope you are enjoying Father`s Day.

Thanks Terry for modeling the importance of having a life and interests outside of education. You appear to be in your happy place! :-)
