Violin and Viola recital

We are blessed to have a wonderful violin/viola teacher that gives lessons for $8.00.  I have always loved playing music myself but honestly could not tell whether a note was on key or not.  When we heard we had some kids that could tell, I was excited to get them into lessons.  Wyatt can hear a note on the piano and know what note it was.  I honestly dont know if that is normal or not, but it sure seemed neat to me.  Wyatt has played the viola since 4th grade and Phoebe and Emmet just started the violin this year.  Emmet is just a whiz in it and they would like him to move up into the next class, but it is in the middle of the day and I just cant stand the thought of hanging out in town longer than I already do.  Phoebe is doing good with it and loves to play. I love her dedication.  Some things come a little harder for our girl and I am so proud of her determination and plight to never give up. It took her a very long time to learn to write but she never gave into the frustration.  I think learning to play and do this will be very good for her.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming, "Wow, what a ride!" Author unknown

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.

143,000,000 ORPHANS:

It is estimated that between 143,000,000 and 210,000,000 children are orphans. That’s at least 143 MILLION children in the world today. (Recent UNICEF report.)

To give you an idea of the enormity of this need, keep in mind that the approximate population of the US is 300,000,000; and the population of Russia is 141,800,000.)

There are more orphans in Sub-Sahara Africa than ALL of the children
in Denmark, Ireland, Norway, Canada, and Sweden – combined!
