see explantation below. I somehow got these in backward order again!
After watching a music program Ainsley was inspired to play the violin. When we were at Greenhill the orchestra would always come play for the little guys and I was even drawn to the violin. I think I would like to take lessons (are you laughing mom - saying "yea, right?") I was the typical kid who wanted the beautiful outcome but I was NOT willing to practice! Anyway, she started talking about the violin and looked at me with this lighbulb moment and said "I can play the violin" she ran and got her guitar and a stick and went at it!
Ainsley went and dug out my huge box of construction paper and misc scraps. She started cutting and taping and going to work. She dressed up in a fancy dress and said she was getting married. She decorated her playroom with misc paper pieces for the event. She then cut, taped and fitted each of her brothers with king crowns! I love it!
The teacher in me eats this up!!! I'm sure Ainsley will be (if she isn't already) using this to her advantage. If she can come up with a good reason/need I'm pretty open to letting her try it out or understanding to something that has already happened! So fun to see it all being played out.
