Message from the President
Dear Members,

I hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and that there was some rest involved. We hosted our yearly get-together with friends from the time we lived in Dallas, it was their turn to travel this year and to experience the wonderful and crisp weather we had last week. It was most likely the last time we did this, so it was bittersweet. My husband has accepted a new job in Sweden and will move there after New Years. Our girls and I will stay behind and finish off the spring semester, then we will join him, sometime in June. I have informed my students and now you, my collegues. It was not an easy decision, but one that will be good for the whole family once the transition is done and over with. When we leave, it will be 8 years in Atlanta and thanks to all of you, it has been exciting and very musical. I am very grateful that I have been part of NFMTA. I have given much time to the organization being one of the board members, sometimes feeling I don't I have enough time, but I have been given so much more in return that it has been worth every moment of it. I encourage each one of you to figure out a way to get involved in NFMTA, it really gives back. Renee will be looking for board members for the new executive board, so think "Yes" before you think "No." I hope to see you at the Holiday Brunch that Renee is hosting this year, and if not, I wish you a wonderful Holiday Season and a great Winter break.

Musically yours,
Maria
