Mozart

My husband and I attended a homeschool conference in July. My favorite workshop was by Andrew Pudewa (creator of the Institute for Excellence in Writing). Mr. Pudewa used to be a Suzuki violin teacher, and gave a fabulous presentation on the profound impact of music on life. He inspired me to listen more to classical music (although listening is not as beneficial as playing). Interestingly, I have discovered that listening to Mozart makes me really energetic and happy! A very nice discovery--I now like to turn on my favorite Mozart CD first thing in the morning; it's a really nice way to start the day.
