Violin Virtuoso (aka The Wannabe)



P became quite keen on learning to play the violin a few months ago. It seemingly just came to him one morning. So when the the Ast twins pulled out their little violins and performed for their papa's birthday last weekend, P was beside himself. Impressed with them, but even more impressed with the idea of getting his grubby little hands on those pretty instruments...

They sweetly obliged and Uncle Seth even helped make a song out of it while P happily bowed. Then Aunt Alicia gave a go at it. You can see the twins beaming at her attempt. They are, quite simply, amazing little girls...

As the evening wound down, P and Alya hunkered down over a game of cards. She was patient and helpful, he was interested and earnest. Its the exact age gap that Naomi Aldort recommends and it is definitely the one that always brings out the best in P. I think any age gap would probably bring out the best in those twins though:)
