Singing with My Son



Last month I was asked to be the Parent Guest Speaker at Ithaca College. I graduated from I.C. in 1973 and my son Johnny is now a senior in the Music School which was also my major. I was thrilled to be asked to speak and it was very exciting. My Marketing Assistant – also an Ithaca College graduate- suggested I talk to the other parents about how my experiences at Ithaca shaped my career so we put together some old pictures of my days at I.C. At the end of my talk, Johnny and I sang together- a wonderful song called “Get Ready to Share” that I wrote with composer Mike Levesque for my new book series The I Believe Bunny. We got a standing ovation! It was a moment I will never forget.
