Jacob played in two-

The first one was supposed to be with a little boy-Jerrel, who is 6 yrs old  and in his 2nd yr. of piano. Unfortunately he became ill the day of the recital and was not able to  be there. So Mrs. Blankenship played his part with Jacob. They played “When the Saints Go Marching In”.

We didn’t know it at the time, but Taylor was not feeling well at all. He said afterwards that his head was killing him and he had a temperature that night of 103 when we got home! Never did really figure out what was wrong. He ran fever for two days then went back to his normal healthy self. So proud of him for the great job he did considering how rotten he felt.
