I know I'm still behind, but I'm getting there. We have been fighting illness for weeks! Sydnie gets better for about a week and then gets something else. First a runny nose and cough, then swine flu (although she assured me she hadn't been kissing any pigs), now she woke up this morning sneezing like crazy and has used so many kleenexes! (We started a thankful jar for the month of November, and that's what she put in today - kleenexes!) Now, back to this picture. Sydnie has been anxious to be in orchestra ever since she was in 2nd grade. We found the different string instruments on-line and listened to how they sounded and she picked........the cello! It's been fun to watch her learn a new instrument, but between cello and piano practicing, we are keeping busy! I was informed she needed to name her instrument, so she named it Strings. Perfect, don't you think!
Here is a movie of her playing Mary had a Little Lamb - (sorry about the directions - but just think of it as good exercise for your neck.)
