🥁 March Forth/Fourth
Today would probably have been a better day for the Music Man post since it’s about marching forth on March Fourth.
📝 National Grammar Day
National Grammar Day is observed across the United States each year on March 4th. According to Global Language Monitor, the estimated number of words in the English language is 1,025,109. There is some controversy to that number, but it’s safe to say it is over a million.

🥁 The Music Man
Remembering all the words is no small feat. I first started collecting records (yes, records!) of musicals when I was in high school in Springfield, MA.

This word comes from the Italian word “arpeggiare”, which means “to play on a harp”. An alternative translation of this term is “broken chord”.
☦️ Lenten Hymn and Devotion, Week 2
Brian Stevenson, Pender UMC Director of Handbells and Ensembles, presents a series of hymn-based devotions at noon on Wednesdays during Lent. The Second Hymn-based Devotion is Ah, Holy Jesus.
📚 Practice Pie: The Step-By-Step Guide To Helping Your Child Enjoy Their Music Practice
In Practice Pie, I’ll teach you how to support your child in their musical journey. I can’t promise it will be as easy as pie (but then, is pie really easy?) but I can promise to make it quick and practical, with a little humour thrown in for good measure.
