Say What??! Wednesday

so our friend ben is a drummer. he is a professor of music at a couple local colleges and he teaches drum lessons as well. he offered last week to come over and have a drum lesson with isaiah. we totally jumped at the chance.

so after dinner ben asked isaiah if he wanted to head up to play the drums. isaiah quickly said yes and they started that way. ben started to explain how he had been thinking all day how exactly you give a drum lesson to a 2 and half year old that has the mind of an 11 year old. i sensed that he might be feeling some pressure so i said, 'ben, there is no pressure. we have no expectations, we're just glad you are here.'

isaiah quickly chimed in:

'yeah ben, the pressure is all on the drumsticks!'
