Tar-Tar

Aaron is currently obsessed with guitars. Every single time we walk by my studio he yells, "Tar-tar" and demands that we play EVERY guitar at least once. He'll point at which one I should play next. I usually hand him my pick and let him strum a few chords--but he always hands it right back and wants to hear me play. It's quite the ego boost! Aaron has now discovered that he can carry this little mini-guitar all by himself...so he takes it with him everywhere he goes. "Tar-tar! Tar-tar!"

While it is encouraging to know he wants to be like me, it is also completely humbling. He's watching my every move. Whatever I do, he will mimic. Whatever I say, he'll repeat. Looks like I'm "on-stage" at all times now. Hopefully I hit the right notes.

And don't forget to tell everyone about his new favorite "book"... a.k.a the "Guitar Center" magazine ;-)

that's right! Forgot about that...thanks Kjaere! Yes, he gets so pumped to see over 30 guitars on ONE page! It's just way too much goodness.

That is so cute.....Don't worry, tho.
I think of all the guys out there to copy, Aaron picked a really good one!

I am not at all surprised with Aaron, he'll probably be on stage by the time he's 3 with a family like he has. Absolutely adorable. Grandma Shudu
