Put on John Coltrane's "Giant Steps." And he immediately broke into a huge smile, lifted his arms, and started dancing. And said "I like this!"
Sigh. Nothing could make this old jazz fan happier.

In light of L'il Ty's near-complete disinterest in music, these stories from you folks have been making me feel like a parenting failure, although I'm trying to convince myself that he's just wired differently (i.e., it's my genes, not my parenting skills).
