Tal thinks I am "THE MEANEST MOM" in the world because I insist that he learn piano. He hates to practice and slouches and crosses his legs indian style on the piano bench while the teacher is here just to be defiant. But, then when he practices a song and plays it well, he can't wipe the smile off his face. I laugh because secretly I think he loves it. Holden just loves everything and hugs me and tells me "THANKS" all the time for letting him take piano.. They are both so unique and lovely in their own ways. This photo was taken at a recent piano recital.
