Magical Advice

M is trying to learn "Pat a Pan" on piano for the choir.

Tonight lP told her "Don't just run through it, actually practice

the parts you don't know."  M yelled back "I've been taking

piano for 5 years, I don't need your magical advice!"

Tonight we went to a friends house because the mother of this friend is having a class over the next 4 weeks about peer relations and emotional health.  There are 13 girls ages 10-14 and they talked about Fitting in vs. Belonging.  It was pretty great.

Classes

 M is in an astronomy class at the homeschool co-op and got to create this model of a star with a giant rice crispy treat and lots of candy.  Then she ate it.  She did share a lot of the candy with her siblings.

 M loves going to band.  I'm so glad that is working out well.  It's wonderful for her to go off and have these adventures of independence.  This is a mural in the hall at her school.  So fun.

M has started playing the french horn!  This picture was just documenting the dings on the school horn she is borrowing. 

It's so cute!
