Sometimes it turns out to be a comedy of errors. Well, truthfully, most times! But, you know, really, it is an absolute testament to the power of the multi-tasking mother. We're giving out snacks, averting disasterous messes, providing arts & crafts, all while teaching and learning. The amount of times it takes to refocus and then switch gears again is truly an homage to a woman's abilities, if I do say so myself.
Today, I couldn't resist getting out my camera as Ella was climbing up the music stand, I was trying to distract the girls by giving them triangles to chime along with, and Kim was mastering a new concept on the violin. (Ella escaped before I could catch her in the act!) But I love that Kim is still willing to try something new even though it isn't as easy with little ones running around. That inspires me!

What inspires ME is someone who sings in the Phoenix Symphony Choir, just started a successful business endeavor, plays the violin AND the piano, is an awesome Primary Music Leader and Princess Pre-School teacher, piano teacher, mommy and wife extraordinaire...oh, and a really cool and funny person, too that just seems to juggle it all so effortlessly. But where on earth would a woman like that really exist? Ummm...down the street, maybe?
Way to go Aimee and Kim! I remember those days of teaching an adult violin student, when my little toddler Aimee was jealous of her mother's time--she came up to me very quietly and chomped down on my thigh as hard as she could! Ouch! :) I still love you, Aimee!
