little drummer girls

Last Sunday my friend Debbie Paur gave the girls a
drum set. They've had lots of fun beating out rhythms
on their new drums.


Look at her concentrate. My dad was sleeping

downstairs, so I told her that she had to play quietly. She played for most of an hour,

never getting very loud. (Although once my dad was awake, she showed us just how loud

could be.

  1. I've always been impressed with how well Michelle & Ella mind what they are told. It would take a ton of self control someone that young to play so quietly for that long! You are doing a great job with your girls!

  2. Thank you. I appreciate your vote of confidence. It feels like for the past month or so, Michelle and Ella have been fighting over toys and not getting along nearly as well as they did just six weeks ago. It also seems that Ella has hit the height of tantrums. She has a major meltdown almost daily. (But I have a 3rd grade student that has daily melt downs too, so I guess I shouldn't be too hard on her... she's not quite 3.)

    I know they are good girls, and I'm grateful for that.

    I am always so impressed by you and how well you interact with your kids. You're amazing, Carin! And now to be relief society president too! Wow!
