Right now Samuel is playing drums using a pan & lincoln logs while Levie is playing the baritone. James like to play the trumpet, so I think we're on our way to forming a family band. It's a lot of noise, but I love that they are so interested in music!! Levi's piano lessons are coming along very well. He has a master class coming up... it's a class where all the students come together and play. They critique each others work and encourage each other. I think it's a great idea! Levi's teacher also has him starting to compose. I think I may have mentioned that before... I'm going to recommend the book "Who Owns the Sun?" We read it for school this week. It is such a good book and really opened the door to talk about how we are in control of our thoughts and actions... also introduced my children to slavery in America and how people used to be so intolerant of different races. The kids & I had some good conversations about how God created us all equal and how neat it is that we live in the "melting pot" where all the different cultures seem to merge. Today we're going on a nature walk. I'm trying to talk DH into going to a corn maze, but he says he doesn't really want to. I think it sounds like fun for the kids... and for me. *grin* He says getting lost in a corn field doesn't sound like much fun. I have good memories of running around in corn fields when I was young and I think it will be fun. If we don't go there, we'll go to the woods and hike on some trails there.
