About 2 weeks before his 2nd birthday, Jakob found a beautiful guitar that was left behind with some other trashy toys as a parting gift from a family that left Yanbu. As worthless as can be, from a musical perspective, Jakob has spent some quality time honing his “wock-star” skills. Here’s a video of one of our jam sessions. So far, our repertoire extends from the classic 80’s tune, Bullfrogs and Butterflies, to singing the ABC’s.
Enjoy.

Maybe if you knew the chords Chris, your son could sing the song. He seems well on his way to being the front man. Micah can do some harmony on Jesus loves me and Deep and Wide if you ever need a good back up singer.

Hmm, finding toys in the trash, wonder where he picked that up, ask Lish.

Too bad my guitar playing doesn’t sound more like Uncle Klaus!

Wonder if he plays anymore? Would be a shame if he didn’t. But I haven’t heard it in decades.
Keep practicing Chris, you’ll get there…maybe…someday. Take Jim’s advice and work on the ACD song
