Being Daddy
PoeticIntensity
I recently wrote a piece about how much I miss the things that used to come so easily before I had children.
Although everything I wrote is true, writing that article caused me to reflect on how lucky I am to be a parent at all.
The things which I now miss due to parenthood are luxuries related to selfishness. The things I enjoy because...

So lately, I've been experiencing a lot of clients coming in, giving studio time as a gift, and to be honest, I think that is awesome. As always, ya never know what to expect when a new client comes in, but I've gotta say, anyone who gives the gift of music is probably someone I wouldn't mind hanging around in the studio.
