Brandi, my sweet sister, her husband Dr. Steve, and four of their five children stayed the night at our house last night on their way to...Disneyland. Five glorious days in Disneyland.
When Sarah woke up this morning, she had a wonderful surprise: four playmates in sleeping bags. This is Sarah and Anders playing blocks this morning.
I miss them already. When they left, our house became very empty.

Sarah, like a hobbit, needed second breakfast this morning. Maybe she was just bored.

Also, I love love love the new picture of Sarah on your header. She is the most gorgeous little girl.
And using that left-hand to eat cereal ! That's my girl.
I start out with notes of course, the 2 black keys are a "dog house" with d (the dog) in the middle, and the "big house" has a garage and attic. And label them from there playing some games with that.
I love the Piano Adventures books and Fletcher books too. That's mostly what I teach from. One of my parents likes Bastien so we've done that a little too.
So every lesson (once we know the notes)we do a scale to warm up. then a few songs from two different books and then we plunk out "I am a child of God" and other easy primary songs. There are some easy songbooks at Deseret Book. That's my formula. It works really well.
