Bling for Strings Store. Tuesday, May 19, 2015. Méara Meara at The Burren in Boston. About 3-4 years ago, Dylan and I met an uillean piper named Keegan. Keegan began cyberschooling (homeschooling on the computer) in January. A month ago, Méara Meara opened for The Máirtín O’Connor Trio. I had never met them before, so I was very excited to hear them play. It took about seven hours to drive to Boston, during some of which Dylan drove close to a Megabus to get Keegan enough Free Wifi to compl...We stayed w...

http://tunefuljourneys.blogspot.com/2016/10/literary-explorations.html
Bling for Strings Store. Sunday, October 23, 2016. Here I am, writing a blog post for the first time in months! Sorry about that. After a busy summer I'm finally getting back into the swing of things. I started my freshman year of homeschool a couple of months ago. As you can probably tell by the fact that I have a blog, writing is my favorite subject- as long as music doesn't count as schooling. Also, many of you know that I have a fabulous writing mentor, Miss Kathy. I gathered three different quotes a...

Making music with kids: July 2012
http://makingmusicwithkids.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Making music with kids. Monday, July 16, 2012. Getting teachers on your side-finding the right fit for gifted young children:. This post is part of the Parenting the Gifted Blog tour. 1) Do your research. The fact is that giftedness isn't easy to deal with as a parent OR as a teacher.

Bling for Strings Store. Friday, July 22, 2016. My Summer Schedule- music, music, and more music! This summer I’ll spend many a late night into early morning playing music in good company. Mom and I arrived in Parsippany on Friday, June 24th—my birthday BTW. We spent the evening playing tunes and eating delicious chocolate-coconut cake, courtesy of my friend Keegan. I continued to play music until midnight, but sadly had to retire to bed because of the competition starting at 9:00am. After a fun-filled I...
