Last Sunday Megan and Emily had the opportunity to play their violin for the Primary Sacrament Program. They played "I Know that My Redeemer Lives" as a duet and then in harmony for the chorus. Everytime I think about how well they did I just smile with delight. They played the song perfectly with great sound and perfect bows together which was a huge accomplishment. Even Daddy was amazed with the girls and how well they did. Practice times are not always the smooth happy days - sometimes we just did a 5 min practice or just 2 measures to figure some notes out. But over the past 4 months we followed my Mom's (Elsie's) motto that I grew up with - PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE. YOU CAN DO ANYTHING AS LONG AS YOUR WILLING TO WORK AT IT!!! It was very nice to have both my sisters and their families come to watch and support the girls - Thanks Tania & Keli Anne. Both Megan and Emily felt such a sense of accomplishment. Emily even said "I think I like the violin" and is now asking to practice. She passed off a song in 2 weeks which was usually taking 2 months. I am so proud of these 2 little almost 8 year olds - they make my heart sing!!!!
