I feel like I am reliving my childhood at times.  Nina is starting to let me play songs on the piano now.  (Until recently, every time I would sit down to play she would get up on the piano bench, pull my music down, and pound the keys.)    Don't get me wrong, I am no stranger to being bugged while playing the piano (thanks to my sweet older sister Katie :), but Nina and Miri are ruthless....until recently.  Now, when I play, they dance around the house and sing.  I am reminded of my own Mom playing the piano in our antique room as we danced around.  Mom would pound those piano keys with such energy and spunk:  she would play everything from Broadway to Janeen Brady to Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy.  Joyful noise would fill the house!  Ahhh, such happy memories.  Thank you Mom:)
