I'm a mom of 6, a writer and a former teacher of Russian, living in the DC area and strumming a concert Fluke at every opportunity.
I've been lurking, reading lots of great posts and learning. My musical background includes some guitar as a child (I slowed down considerably when my instructor started classical--I couldn't read music yet), then alto sax (with a little flute for jazz band) for years, and then choir in college. I was away from music for many years. My youngest daughter said she wanted a uke; I bought it for her, strummed it and that was that.
My next dream purchase is a Kiwaya laminate--I'd love solid wood, but with all these kids and a Corgi, I can't care for anything else without going bonkers. I'd be checking humidity all the time.
Thanks for being so generous with your wisdom! What a lovely, friendly community.
