I've heard that pictures tell a story. Pictures can also be deceiving. Bet you'd never guess...
I am so proud of 11 year old Liam. He plays trombone in his school band. Looks like he is giving it his all, but this was a candid shot. He was standing on stage among his peers waiting for dismissal. He wasn't making a sound.
I would do anything to protect him, but I am not his bodyguard, and that is not a weapon in my hand. It is my cell phone.For my writer friends out there, Chicken Soup for the Soul has many callouts for several titles for next year. Now is the time to submit your story. I went through my old files, discovered a slew of stories that were not accepted over the years and sent all ten of them off after I edited each for the upcoming titles.
People ask where I get my ideas. I pull from my reservoir of life stories. We all have stories. Why not get paid for sharing yours?

Hi Linda...That's actually a great "silent" shot. I'd love to hear Liam play the trombone. I have a young grandson who is just starting to play and a nephew's son who is proficient on that instrument. There is even a trombone concert in the town where I live, this coming Saturday, the day before Mother's Day. I just might "slide" over there and take a listen. The best to Liam and to his Great Grammie. Susan
As you said in a previous post, Liam is as tall as you are now!
Yes. That would be fun.
My son, The Pony, played trombone. When you said it was a silent picture, I thought maybe Liam was letting out the spit! That's a great photo of you and Liam.
