He will be a notable violinist

Elisha has quite an excellent memory for a toddler.  Today, his violin teacher was amazed that he knew all of his flashcards.  He can also sing the notes for French Folk Song.  So, his teacher said that in his 27 years of teaching, he was the most gifted of his students so far.  Of course, in the past, he also mentioned that what he does as a toddler is quite common in Japan.  He also mentioned that Samuel is quite good too as he's almost finished Suzuki book 1 and he started later like he, himself, did.  He also mentioned that they should have better violins to play!  Argh!  Grandma and Grandpa bought the Mason and Hamlin piano, but who is to buy the 'better violins' now?  I know it will make a difference, but can we afford it?  Of course, none of this would happen if their mom didn't guide their practice.  Northern Dynasty Minerals had a big slide again today.  It's looking pretty grim right now.
