A Future Musician?

The other day I heard someone at the piano tinkering away. I figured it was the little girls playing. Suddenly, it was no longer random keys, but a melody I heard. When I went to see what was going on, this is what I found:

Matt and Grace playing side by side. Of course, he was playing and she was "helping". They were just too sweet not to catch a picture. I wish you could have seen the joy in her eyes as she sat there next to her daddy. I see some piano lessons in a certain princess' future!

First Day of Kindergarten

Who knew how quickly the years would go by? Madilyn started kindergarten today! She was a bit apprehensive walking down the halls of her new school. Right before we entered the classroom she looked to me and said, "Mommy, I'm a little bit scared." I reassured her that all of the other kids were new as well and that she would probably have lots of fun. She put on a brave face and marched into her classroom. She found her seat and within a few minutes she was happily coloring and talking off the ear of the little boy next to her. When Matt brought her home that evening, I of course asked her all about her day. She replied, "kindergarten is AWESOME!!!! I can't wait to go there again!!!" I am SO thankful that she is loving her school and making friends. Each small victory is a step in the right direction as we adjust to our new location :)
