These sweeties had a piano recital earlier this month and did so well! I am so proud of them and the time they spend practicing and learning the piano. I hope it brings them joy for themselves and also that they see the joy it can bring to others. Jacob played “Mr. McGill’s Boop Sha-Bop!” …
Just three days after we moved to Colorado, Jacob and Sarah were playing charades. While they were playing, Sarah fell and her two front teeth chipped. It was pretty bad.
