Jerry made the marimba from scrap pieces of wood for a birthday present for Miles. It's an octave and a half, and the reason the keys aren't graduated evenly in length is that they're made of different kinds of wood with different resonating frequencies.
The things you learn.
The rock star birthday party was a great success. If we had harnessed the energy we could have closed down the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant for several hours.
At the same time, it was a very happy party. As my mother used to say, "No one cried, no one whined, no one wet." A good time was had by all.

That's not pushing--it's just allowing Miles to explore opportunities. Isn't that part of what childhood is about? It's beautiful!
