Rowan's Journal

...from this weekend, before I make the actual WEDDING WEEKEND post.

On Sunday, we shared the stage with Whirly Jig as Tullamore was at the Irish Festival. It was SUCH a treat getting to flip back and forth with them, since we each got to listen to one anothers' shows and sometimes participate a bit. More on that later...

But this story occurred in the afternoon as Whirly Jig was leaving the stage and QG was taking it. An adorable little red-headed girl, about 7 or 8, was sitting on the second row with her family. Just as margotdevallier turned to leave, this child piped up, "I loved your songs!" and I wasn't sure she'd heard so I grabbed her sleeve to turn her back around. The child repeated it and Margot beamed and thanked her back. She and I looked at each other, smiling and a bit teary-eyed. I said, "THAT'S why we do this!" She nodded and we further cemented that she and I simply love one another, before she turned to go.

Yeah, THAT's why we do this...
