I had two concerts over the weekend...we played selections from the Nutcracker Suite and Messiah. I cannot even begin to tell you how much fun it is for me to be part of an orchestra again!
During the month of December, I'm wearing a dress every single day. Why? I'm participating in Dressember...an international fashion challenge to raise awareness and funds in the fight against human trafficking. Modern day slavery is a huge problem and fighting it takes a lot of money. I know that young girls are the most vulnerable to human trafficking. I have two young daughters. I also have a passion for doing my part to make things right and just. If wearing a dress every day for the rest of my life would eliminate the evil of human trafficking, I'd be the first to sign up.
If you want to donate to this cause, here is a link to my team page.... Dressed to Bless.
That is so awesome that you're keeping your talent alive. I've been enjoying your song sharings on Instagram. Very nice.
