Easter Weekend

A whole crowd arrived this morning- Christoph's parents, Eva's father and another couple, Charlotte and Kaspar. The house was very lively, indeed! It's nice to have a crowd around, but it just makes me miss my usual Easter crowd :(

This weekend is going to be a bit difficult...I will be needed often with the baby because everyone is going to see concerts and having dinner every night. I know that's exactly why I'm here...but it will be a bit of a lonely stretch, and thinking about my family in Atlanta...this is the first time in 20 years that I haven't been there!

I'm also really anticipating getting back to Dusseldorf so I can start searching for a teacher...I'm very excited to get in contact with one American teacher at the conservatory in Dusseldorf who Eva has worked with! I really want to be working on something new...new music...and just continuing to explore singing. I'm also really curious to know what this lesson will be like, and how it will be different from other lessons I've had before. I really miss singing these days, and I really miss having a creative project to work on.

Boring, slightly sad post. But I'm currently writing this from my favorite little place, called "Afro Cafe" in Salzburg. I just ordered a glass of wine and a nice lunch, so at least I'll be able to enjoy that before I have to go back to being the babysitter.

I will say, however, of all of the things I've been paid to do, watching and playing with this precious little angel is by far the most fun. It's definitely a lifestyle, and not just a job, but I am really falling in love with this child. He is such fun to play with and to take care of...so at the end of the day, I have that.
