Miya has been bumped up to Keyboard class at music. She enjoyed it tremendously much and has been busy the whole day practicing and telling me about the music and so on. She is even going around making “DO-RE-ME” kind of songs….. Um yes. Okay. Well…. here we go – ROCK ON!

It’s like a game in my mouth!

Tuesday, January 10, 2012

After having a handful of berries (I *SO* love fresh berry season – the girls have berries all day long!), Miya said “You know, this is so delicious, it’s like the berries are having a game in my mouth.”

Admonished

Monday, January 9, 2012

Today, after Ricky got angry with Leia and told her firmly “No! Do not mess inside.”, Miya piped up and said: “No Daddy. You know if you talk like that to Leia it is how she will talk to her children one day.” Um. Okay. Reproached.

Today at Leia’s music class, I told Teacher Cherise that Miya had composed her own song (s) over December and that she played Twinkle Twinkle on her new keyboard by ear. She was so impressed that she asked if we wanted to move Miiya to a keyboard class…. Wow! Of course, we’ll first go see [...]

Playtime

Wednesday, January 4, 2012

Today we played and played and played… We played hide and seek, chase and tickle, with paper dolls and blocks, cars and top trump cards. We played with keyboards and we baked.
