Hey all! Rowan's asleep and Brenda's at work so I've got a little free time to write to you. Instead of blogging last night as I should have, I went to the opera house and heard a beautiful recital by star tenor Piotr Beczala. I've heard him sing once before in Vienna in the summer of 2012 opposite my wonderful wife. It was great hearing him again. Brenda was kind enough to look after Rowan while I went to the recital.
Verdi's Rigoletto opens at Oper Frankfurt on Sunday, and I have a feeling it's going to be great. It's a pity they aren't making a recording because the cast can't be beat. It looks like I'll be on baby duty on Sunday, but I'm hoping to catch a performance soon.
We're all very excited for Brenda's brother, Drew, to get here tomorrow. He's going to be in town for about a week, and it just so happens he'll be here for Rowan's first birthday. He can help us plan Rowan's party, which will probably just be the four of us eating cake. Rowan hasn't had cake before, or any sugar for that matter, but he will eat some on his birthday. I think he's going to like it. Experts say parents are supposed to wait until a child is 35-years-old before giving them sugar, but we just can't wait that long.
So that's what we're up to. I hope all is well with you, and we'll talk to you next week!
