She loves to drive in the car with us when I take the kids to school or to their activities.
She likes to rest under the coffee table.
Maryn had her last volleyball tournament this Saturday. She is becoming quite the volleyball player! Here is a blurry picture of her getting ready to serve.
This week Luke had an epiphany. I was tucking him into bed, and he said he was excited for the next day because BYU was playing in the NCAA basketball tournament and he had piano lessons. The game part didn’t surprise me, but I did a double take about the piano. Normally he says Thursdays are his worst days because of piano and everyday it’s a struggle to get him to practice because he whines and complains about how much he HATES piano. When I asked him why he was excited he said, “Well, I’m prepared for my lesson. I know all my songs really well. It’s actually fun to play them once I know them. I can’t believe it took me ten years to figure out that if I practice hard, my lessons are fun. Can you believe it took me that long to figure it out? That if I practice I’ll like it?” I was very surprised but thankful, because that is exactly what I’ve been hoping he’d figure out. Developing talents takes work and discipline and isn't always fun, but the results are worth it.
