Nana is here!

Nana was visiting during a big week at the Ledinsky house.  We hadn't seen her since we went to Florida in March, so the kids were counting down the days.
She went to Kenna's birthday celebration at Preschool, Drake's preschool field-trip to Principal Park; where the Iowa Cubs play, Wyatt's Field Days at Greenwood, and the Greenwood Family Carnival.  It was a big week!  The kids were all elated to have Nana here, and it is always tough to see her go.

Number 1, Number 2 and Number 3

Drake has taken to numbering his thoughts when he wants to share with us.  One of the latest to Jon, after calling out, at approximately 5am....

DAAAD!
Number 1; I had a nightmare.  Number 2; those birds are wakin' me up.  
Number 3; can you shut the windows?


Of course, Jon immediately shut the windows...anything to not have to get up at 5am.  And I do have to say, I agree with Drake, once spring starts, if we have our windows open, those birds are loud.  We all enjoy having yard with lovely, mature trees, but it can be a bit noisy!

CIML Recital ~ Go WYATT!

Last night was the Central Iowa Music Lab (CIML) Spring Recital.  Wyatt performed a song co-written by his instructor, Will Locker, and himself.  They titled it, "Wyatt's Groove," though Wyatt says the "real name" is Mario Bros.
Wyatt adores Will, as he knows about two things Wyatt loves to talk about; rock-n-roll & video games.  Will Locker is the drummer in the band Bright Giant.

Wyatt has performed dozens of times, however, mostly with a group (Sheltered Reality).  He does get a little shy when he is on his own, drumming.  We were so proud of him last night, as he got beyond his stage fright & rocked the show.
