{I love this status I saw today on a friends facebook page:
9.I amThankful K stuck to his piano another year...... he did a great job tonight at his recital so proud of him he memorized his piece again and did awesome! He is the only boy right now and puts up a nice fight sometimes to practice but he really is good! And learns so quick
is it wrong for me to push him until he can play hymns without thinking??
I love it when men/boys can play the piano!
{He looks so happy in this picture I know .....and so comfortable ha ha...... he loves it when I embarrass him lol he told me no pictures but I usually win ;) }
He has a great teacher and he really likes her so I keep pushing him to do it!
10. I am so thankful for articles like this one
because I remember having so many of the same thoughts... there are so many what ifs at every stage of life.....
What if we quit
what if'ing??
don't think that will ever stop do you??
Its a constant..

No. 6 Oh I hear ya girl on THAT one! lol. I totally kept my cool when my clothes were obviously being tried on all night -- as if I wouldn't notice that one-- did she think I wouldn't notice when I am so OCD about them all being color coded and hung on the hangers in a certain way?--but the line sure was crossed when my jewelry started disappearing one piece after another. Just sayin' ; S
No. 9 YAY! So happy that he's doing another year of piano. Take it from Colby.....they really NEED more elders out in the field who knows how to play the hymns. They don't have to memorize them....just know how to read the music from the book. I LOVE it when my boys play too. It's nice to see. Good for K!! Love his smile. ; D
No. 10 Awesome article!! So many memories of talking to C1 about that. And now I give the same "talk" to C2....only this time about marriage. It's a good article for anyone who is "if'ing" about what to do if their life is being put on hold for whatever.
Thanks for reminding me to always be grateful!! Love your posts on Thursdays....especially today.....trying to clean up the POND that's in my basement right now due to all this rain......but I shall be grateful the fire ban is lifted. That means my home is still standing and not in danger of being burnt down like so many others have this month. Right? ; D
Have a great weekend!
My mom made Shane and Carrie play til they were 14 then they could both decide to keep at it or not. They both chose to quit, and later admitted they really regret it. And what girl doesn't love a boy that can play piano? Although K is probably too young to care about that. I didn't love the piano til I was 14; now it is my fave thing to do, just sit down and play. I say keep pushing him !! It's worth it!
I'm with you on American Idol, could have totally done without Lady Gaga!
You've always got the best quotes on your blog!
Aww, that last article was awesome!!! Thats right where I am right now in life, so your timing is impeccable!
You really do have so much to be thankful for huh, with such amazingly cute kids! I love them so much and can't wait to see them this summer. I love you too of course :)
Stick with the piano, I wish I did. My nephew just got called has their ward pianist and he is 13, amazing!
