  • Dyson and I play Beethoven

    We have a digital piano at home and one day Dyson asked for piano lessons. I think he’s starting earlier than I did. So he’s probably better than I was at that age. And if he keeps up with it, he’ll be better than I am now.

    It kinda embarrasses me / fills me with me pride, but there are already things he’s better than me at:

    • Running continuously for 2 miles.
    • Playing Connect Four.
    • Holding a plank position.
    • Being cute.

    Fortunately, there are still things I’m better at:

    • Playing the piano.
    • Playing chess.
    • Programming computers.
    • Public speaking.

    Well, at least … for now. As time goes on, the top list will grow and the bottom list will shrink. I suppose that’s ever the way with being a parent. I just didn’t think it’d start happening when he was six!
