Blessings

Yesterday we had the young people from church in our home. The tuned my children's instruments which was very, very nice of them since I have no idea how to. After they left my children of course had to get their instruments out and practice them. My son learned to play "Amazing Grace" and sounded better each time he played. I'm not really sure were he learned to read music. My oldest daughter got her violin out and the youngest not to be out done played the keyboard. Eventually we sang a few church songs together. It was a nice, peaceful time for us. None of us are very good but it sounded lovely to me and I'm sure that it was wonderful in God's ears. I'd sure like a few more evenings like that.
We are planning to go on a trip next month and I'm hoping that some of the brethren might be willing to show my children how to play more church songs. I think my daughter can make lovely music on the violin, and I'd like to see what she could do playing it as a fiddle. I'm looking forward to the time spent with my "family". My son and his Papa have gotten together a time or two with some other brethren and done some "pickin". He enjoyed it so much and absorbs any attention and help that he gets with his guitar.
