My youngest son has expressed an interest in Jazz music over the past year, which is pretty cool for a 12 year old. Even more neat considering that isn’t something he hears in our house. About 2 months ago he came to me and told me he wants to learn how to play the trumpet. Today he picked up his first trumpet so that he can start band on Monday. His excitement about it is so damn fun to watch. #prouddadmoment

I chose the Shorter Whitman because of his work, "Song of Myself" and because of my self-deprecating sense of humor. I am under no illusion that I can write successful essays or poetry, but I have been known to write them anyway.
