Recently Caleb & Madison had a piano recital. It was an excellent chance for them to display the skills they are developing. When we walked in I was surprised & happy to see that not only were Caleb & Maddie going to play for us but there were also 8 other students, one of whom was their grandma (their dad's mom). She is an inspiration - always learning something new.
Each student had one solo piece & then they all played in a duet. All of the students except Caleb & Maddie played their duet with the teacher. Caleb & Maddie got to play together.

Doesn't Caleb look thrilled? |

Maddie was nervous all day but she did a great job! |

Their duet |
As I was sitting in the pretty little country church listening to the piano players flow & stumble through their pieces, I did a little looking around. I was filled with gratitude when I realized how many of our family came to support Caleb & Maddie. That's one thing you can say about our family - we show up for each other every time we possibly can. And that's part of what makes my family so very, very wonderful.

Of course Dad & Mom were there. |
|
And the G's (Great Pa & Great Ma) |
|
My Momma aka Grandma In Town |
|
And even Aunt Ruth & Uncle Allan |
It was a good time of entertainment & a great time of fellowship as a family. And no, Caleb & I aren't confessing how many cookies we ate at the reception that followed *grin*

Mo, it would have been fun to have you there! I'm glad you had a wonderful vacation, though. Vacations are absolutely necessary :-)
