If at First You Don't Succeed...

On Recital Day this week, Will was ready to perform "Mary Had a Little Lamb"...nearly:

Take 1


Take 2


Take 3!

The kiddo seems really engaged with her music these days, happily practicing her lesson during our morning Memory Work time, and also goofing around with the recorder, which is sort of my personal hallmark of whether or not one of my kids enjoys something. This week she's learning the rest of the notes to make an entire octave (I print out these soprano recorder fingerings, and have Willow cut out the relevant ones to study and paste them into her school notebook), and then we'll have several other songs to learn before we move into the world of sharps and flats. 

And then, in a couple of months... violin?
