Sitting on the floor

One of the eight year olds is reading. We only have one "big book" for reading, so we try to plan that one starts with reading while the other one starts with the rest of the homework.
Today we didn't plan well enough. Both are done with the math, one is done with the writing. But the reading with all it's questions is a lot of pages today, so it takes some time.

So while sitting on the floor the other one actually finds his guitar and starts palying.
This week the Star Wars Darth Veider theme goes over and over and over and over. Hopefully he will find the "Tir na noir", the "Minuett in G major", the "Ode to joy", the "Yesterday" or what ever all the songs they are playing are.
During their last guitar lesson they begged for the Star Wars stuff, and "The oh So Big Nick" wrote it down to them. Lots of flats and sharps - but who cares? As long as they want to learn it, they are able!
I have to record it for you one day. They are getting quite good!
