It's Violin Season!

Lovey is working hard on her violin pieces as she gets ready for violin week coming up in April. Her teacher has her performing FIVE different pieces and I think I got a slight look of disapproval when I didn't sign her up for MORE! Lovey has almost all of them memorized and is now mostly working on posture, bowing technique and watching her finger placement on the strings. All the boring stuff! She just wants to tear into the songs and have at 'er! She practices without complaint or even hesitation every single day and loves the songs more and more as she learns them.

Misty had a practice concert for some of the students last night so we had Mum & Dad at our house for dinner for a change and they brought GG over too. GG then accompanied us to the concert to see Lovey play we made sure she was awake for the important parts but let her rest up in between. She's almost 94 and it was a pretty full day. I say sleep when you can GG <3   :))) Lovey enjoyed listening to all the other students' music and she & her sisters got quite excited at one piece. I didn't recognize it but they all did! It was from one of the Harry Potter movies, Hedwig's Theme! Lovey's got her eye on that piece! Maybe I should write that down for a birthday idea!

Also want to send Happy Birthday greetings to Nanny! Today's her official birthday and her last one as a teacher! This time next year she's planning to be an official beach bum!
