Saturday is quickly becoming my favorite day of the week. I have such a good time with Lily and the kids.
On Saturday, May 19, Mary had a piano recital. It was at a music store (Piano Gallery). She was third on the program (of 50 or so performers), and since Clarissa was squirming in my lap, I left the recital room to look around the store for a bit right after Mary’s piece. I found their guitar selection and longed to buy one. Ammon sat on mine about six months ago and snapped the neck of it. I’ve been wanting to buy one again ever since, but finances have been tight. While in the store, I called Lily who encouraged me to get a decent one so I found one for $229 marked down from $300. I’ve already played it a lot. I am sooooo grateful to have a guitar again!
Mary did great on her recital piece. She played Mary had a little lamb. Since I am in charge of her piano now, I took extra interest in her performance. Her tempo was a little rushed and uneven at times, but she hit her notes, and overall did a fantastic job. Before going to the recital, she asked if we could wash and vacuum the car for a reward if she did a super good job. She had such a blast last time we washed and vacuumed the car together (when she picked out cotton candy scented deoderizer) that she now views it as a reward. I agreed to her request, so after the recital we went to wash and vacuum the car. She chose a daisy fields deoderizer this time which was a major upgrade from the cotton candy one. I love my one on one time with Mary!
Also, Lydia and Mary helped Lily make BBQ chicken pizza and IT WAS SO DELICIOUS!
