Tonight we explored classical music. It started with Dave introducing Rachel to Clair de Lune. Sammy walked in the room and said, “What’s this?” I said, “It’s Clair de Lune, by the amazing Claude Debussy.”
I raised my eyebrows.
“One day, you’re going to play this and I will just sit in the other room & smile.”
“And then I’ll say, ‘play it again, Sam.’”

After a few minutes, the boys grab the phone and devour orchestral piece after orchestral piece. Josh runs into our room and shouts, “I KNOW ALL THESE!!! THEY’RE FROM BUGS BUNNY!!!”
They were so excited as they made the connection that real people are behind the music that they had to introduce their sister to John Williams. Debussy and Williams. Mind = 🤯🤯🤯
