Starting Suzuki Violin

Our first violin lesson of the fall term is today.  The twins are moving into Book 3--that's good progress.  And Dorito is nearly done with Book 4's concerto. He likes the Matza duets.  Polar Bear has a new violin student named Thad.  He is very sincere in his teaching style.  Winger's student has taken a summer break, and Dorito's student comes back next week from vacation.  So our schedule is starting to fill up.  Yet, it is easier to only have three children at home instead of four.  At bedtime, I sent the twins to separate showers and told Dorito to brush his teeth.  But I caught myself saying, "Now what time is Meggar going to be home? Oh yeah, she's at college."  And the whole bedtime routine went a little more quickly. Imagine that!
