When asked what her goals were for the year, Elle said " I'm going to learn to play the violin." At which point I promptly looked up Suzuki violin teachers and voila just a few weeks later we areon track for her goal! We had to order a special size -- so we were waiting for it to come in the mail...when she heard a knock on the door on Valentine's day, somehow she knew that her violin had arrived. She threw open the door, and ripped open the package and she hurried and put the bow to the violin... unfortunately, it didn't make any sound (no rosin on the bow!) "Mom! It's broken!" When we got some rosinon the bow finally, she put the bow to the untuned strings and was thrilled by the sound (or NOISE!) it made! She played it again and again and again...
"Oh Mom, isn't it just beautiful!" What fun!
"Oh Mom, isn't it just beautiful!" What fun!
I think that is the smallest violin I have ever seen! Her cousin Abbey will be proud!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it amazing how small they make them? She looks so cute with it. You may have a prodigy on your hands. :-) What a precious little musician.
