RE: Making Music with My Family
Thanks @bookleaf. I'd love to hear more about your music-making. I'm new around here, but your posts are already a highlight.

Thanks @sdkelly! I look forward to your posts as well. :) they're great for re-focusing. I'm a preacher-missionary-seminary kid and my family of four often ended up at small churches where WE were the music team. Dad sang tenor and played guitar and mom sang soprano melody. My brother did sound/tech and played drums, bass guitar trumpet and piano in a pinch while I sang alto and played flute, drums (various), bass guitar and keyboard. It was mostly done by ear and We've never written a song together but I've tried my hand in it, nothing to write about there! Nowhere near as successful on that front as you and your brother on that but, like you, it's hard to listen or play music without thinking of family. :)
I have no trouble imagining this scenario, having been in services where the visiting missionary family made the service happen. :) It's fantastic that you're so versatile.
