There is a little bit of space left in these Monday afternoon classes. If you'd like more information, just drop me an email.
I taught Kindermusik classes before Weston was born, but that's been more than two years ago now. Weston came to many, many classes as my number one helper and favorite student. It will not be the same without him, and the memories will be both sweet and incredibly hard. I hope that this will be a part of the slow healing and that I will be able to experience again some of the joy of music that we shared together. What wonderful times we had together playing and singing and meeting new friends.
Maybe this will be the beginning of returning to the music that I taught him to love.
Yesterday, we had the privilege of being a part of planting two trees in Lion's Park, in Weston's name. The MOMs club and the city of Norman arranged this tribute, and we are very appreciative. There is something special about actually getting to help plant the trees. I also like this symbol of continuing life, because I firmly believe that Weston's life is continuing right now in heaven, better than ever before.
I am not teaching right now. I love teaching Kindermusik, and Weston loved coming to Kindermusik. I hope one day to return to it, but right now it's too early to do anything. If you are looking for Kindermusik classes, please contact my dear friend, Ursula Purcell.
Ursula has graciously invited all my Kindermusik families to join her for the rest of the semester, without any cost. I hope that you will all take advantage of this wonderful opportunity. Ursula is a great teacher and a very compassionate person. I think that this could be a very healing, encouraging time for you and your child. I hope you will participate. Kindermusik has always given such joy to Weston and me.
I will be back in touch periodically, though I'm not sure exactly when. You can read about our family and our journey through my husband's blog at claytonguiltner.wordpress.com, where we continue to make daily postings. We would love to hear from you.
Sincerely,
Erin Guiltner
Baking with a toddler is definitely a different process, but I encourage you to give it a try. We have a lot of fun. The key is keeping it simple and quick! There is so much to be learned from a simple cooking project-- math skills, eye-hand coordination, and cooperation to name a few. Plus, you get to eat the results! Learning doesn't get any better than that.
