Apology Letter To Spouse – PRICELESS!

Hi Sweetheart,

I am sorry about getting into an argument about putting up the Christmas lights.  I guess that sometimes I feel like you are pushing me too hard when you want something.  I realize that I was wrong and I am apologizing for being such a hard-headed guy.  All I want is for you to be happy and be able to enjoy the holiday season.  Nothing brightens the Christmas spirit like Christmas lights!  I took the time to hang the lights for you today; and now I will be off to the hockey rink.

Again, I am very sorry for the way I acted yesterday.  I’ll be home later.

Love you……

Her response –    

Hi Honey,
 
Thank you for that heart-felt apology.  I don’t often get an apology from you, and I truly appreciate it.  I, too, felt bad about the argument and wanted to apologize.  I realize that I can sometimes be a little pushy.  I will try to respect your feelings from now on.  Thank you for taking the time to hang the Christmas lights for me.  It really means a lot.  In the spirit of giving, I washed your truck for you; and now I am off to the mall.

I love you too!

Our program on December 10, 2020, featured Cliff Lenz of Music4Life.

The purpose of Music4Life is to provide instruments for students who couldn’t otherwise afford them.  The instruments may be donated and repaired for new life or they may be purchased new.  The Music4Life Foundation is working with 10 local school districts.

“Why are instruments and music programs important?” Mr. Lenz asked.  The answer is that children who study music gain many benefits in addition to simply playing an instrument.   Studies have shown that children who study music do better in math, science and other subjects.  Additionally, learning an instrument builds confidence, patience and social skills.  Studies also show that the study of music by children in low income neighborhoods helped them steer clear of crime and gangs.

Mr. Lenz said that donations of instruments or money will help support this worthwhile program.  Go to www.Music4Life.org for more information.

Cliff is a member of the Governing Board of Music4Life.

You probably recognize Cliff’s name.  Cliff was a television host and producer for King Broadcasting for twenty-two years.  He was the co-host of “Seattle Today” for seventeen of those years.  He also hosted and produced the children’s television program about music called “Music Magic.”

Cliff is the recipient of eleven Northwest regional Emmies, as well as the National Education Association award for “Music Magic” that was selected as the outstanding locally produced educational television program for children in the nation.

He is an Emmy award winning composer, piano and guitar teacher in the Edmonds and Monroe School Districts and a piano and guitar teacher in a private capacity.

There is a District-wide Blood Drive /Promotion starting December 13, ending on Dec 31, 2020.
