Musical Talent, the Vornado, and a Camera Shy Kid

I was born into a family with musical talent. I have played the piano and flute, and have loads of songs on my PC and mp3 player, but that's about it. My mom, however, has written operas, plays the church organ, and is extremely talented.

My boys have taken an interest in the piano, and even with my rose-colored ears, their piano playing is more like loud pounding on the keys. But we all start somewhere and so their grandma has gamely allowed them to play duets with her...



Lm takes over the keys...



Now it's Lk's turn...







He's really going to town now, while Lm decides to play with Tigger in the background.


In addition to the piano, my boys are attracted to humidifiers. I've tried to discourage this, due to having my floors flooded when they knock over the jugs, to little avail. They love humidifiers more than any toy, book, or stuffed animal, even more than their Elmo phones!




Lm looks to the side to make sure Lk will not fight him for it.




Lm loves the air on his hair...



Not to fear, Lk is getting ready to take his nap, but right now he doesn't want his picture taken.




He's a little camera shy today and put his hand up when I tried to snap his photo.



Ok, that's better, Lk!

WOW! I am completely impressed! The earlier that they start, the better! Good for you and grandma for exposing them to music.

PRECIOUS as always!
