Satuday Group Lesson

On Saturday mornings, Benjamin has a group violin lesson. It is such a fun time for him with the other kids & he always looks forward to going.

Performing their bow song with their eyes closed. Benjamin was a little behind in the timing hence his bow is down when it should be been up. It is a challenge for him to keep up with those girls!

Their teacher, Miss Angela, looking at their bow holds. She puts finger puppets on the top of their bows for fun - Benjamin always chooses the snowman puppet.

What He Says...

Some things Benjamin has said lately that I don't want to forget...

  • "Time to speak to God" - when we are playing meeting together & it is testimony time.
  • "Ooops, I missed the wrong way" (meaning, I made a mistake)
  • Words he has been using a lot lately - actually, rambunctious, either
  • What instrument do you play, Benjamin? His answer: A real instrument (while pointing to his little violin)
  • If B is referring to something in the past, he usually says it happened "yesterday or yester time"
  • He was trying to sing the song "One Little Candle" today but his version is "One Little Camel"
  • He called pullups, "pickups"

I'll have to add more as I think of others...

Meeting Bob

It was an exciting moment for Benjamin to finally see Bob the Builder. Even more fun was getting to experience it with his 2 good buddies, Mason & Chase. Since the performance, Benjamin has been "weecycling" and "collecting trash" - the storyline was about Bob building a recycling center, wind turbines, etc. So, he learned something new & has a special interest in trash now!
