New Things!

Niko learned how to blow into the musical recorder today.  The mind boggles.  Within two weeks, this child has learned how to suck through a straw and blow into a recorder.  Oh!  And climb our climbing wall! Something has switched on inside of our child. :)

And I talk about my writing life here.  Good (secret-ish) news, and I officially announce that I started the Williams Syndrome book.  I'm hoping to have the first three chapters finished by Tuesday.  This definitely feels like the project that I should be working on at the moment.  It feels really good.

He's a budding musician! That's not a surprise with his genes. I'm so happy for him. And for you. I'm already wondering what he'll play at his first concert. And I'm wondering if it will be a cello concert or a guitar concert or if he'll play the timpani.

That's so great!! The new music teacher at Michaela's school started the district's only marching recorder band. They marched in our town's holiday parade...it was amazing to watch. Michaela LOVES it!!
