Wednesday Concert

Posted in Music, My people and other animals. on February 26, 2009 | 6 Comments »

Today my twins gave their first ocncert. Christina was the one who had the opening piece, playing her Spanish guitar.
She was carefully made up; I was the one who applied the make up – she has never made up in her life,  so I was the one who did the job. But at the last [...]
