Conversations regarding my daughter’s first flute lesson.*

Before:

Me – I don’t think Charlotte could’ve picked a better instrument. I really like the flute.

Michael – But, have you ever heard it played badly?

After:

Michael – How did you like your lesson?

Charlotte – Fine. My teacher is cute.

Me – Oh, lord no. Not a teacher crush already.

Michael – Musicians are good-looking, aren’t they?

Charlotte – That’s why I’m destined to be one.
