Miss Jolie is in the news!
Last week, I held a free music class at Brookdale Senior Living in Wayne, where children and adults of all ages were invited to dance & sing with me!
I always wanted to do this as a way to give back and spread smiles to Seniors. I finally did it this past December! It was so fulfilling and so much fun.
It was then I decided that I would do a class like this once a month going forward into 2020.
To my surprise, at the last class, a local reporter, Jon Ferris, was there to write a story! I was so shocked and excited!
I feel humbled by Jon's beautiful article, and I want to thank all of the parents who came with their little ones to brighten up the day of the residents at Brookdale Senior Living in Wayne with me.
Here is the article: A performance for Young and Old
My next Move & Groove with Seniors will be :
March 27th in Haskell, NJ
April 9th, in Oakland
May 22, in Wayne

It makes me SO happy when parents tell me their kids want a ukulele because of me!
I also often get teachers & parents telling me they wish they could play.
GUESS WHAT?
You can! Anyone can! With a little effort and practice, you can master this glorious instrument.
Let me show you..
Here's The Itsy Bitsy Spider - a beginner Ukulele tutorial & lesson with Miss Jolie!
I made this video for parents, teachers, and early childhood educators. Once you learn, you can play for, and then teach your little one's!
Enjoy!!
XOXO,
Miss Jolie

One of my favorite ways to bond and cuddle with Georgie is to play music, and dance with him in my arms.
As we float around swaying and spinning, I cherish the weight of him in my arms and soak up all of his delicousness, knowing that his "littleness" is not forever.
My mind can be in so many different places throughout the busy day. Often, I can be with him, but trying to also get things done.
But not when we dance.
When we dance, it's just me and him, and that very moment.
I am so thankful he is mine. It's a special pocket of time I cherish to nuzzle him, and "feel the feels" of this all consuming love.
The world around us disappears for a bit.
Ohh my goodness. This love actually hurts!
Here is my go to playlists for our dance sessions. Sometimes it's just 1 song when he wakes, or maybe 2 songs in the kitchen before I head to work, or a song before bed. He loves when we sway, go from moving fast to slow and fast again, dip, and rock, and spin around.
I love these songs for their positive beat and the reinforcing loving words. Each one tugs my heart and does something to me- do you know that feeling? And the lyrics... it's like they take the words right of my mouth!
The first song is our current favorite. And the second song I wrote, performed by my brothers band, Owls & Lions.
The rest will be sure to tug your heart strings. Enjoy!
