I am enjoying my Mini Music Makes group. At the beginning of May I took over the group because of cut backs in government funding. I felt very strongly about the cancellation of the group, even though the Sprout and I had never attended it. I instantly volunteered to head the group and it has proven to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. Every Wednesday I go to the library and sing with 20+ toddlers and their parents. It is really fun. If anything, I get to sing and be the centre of attention for 30 minutes. The only thing that makes me sad is that the Sprout does't come with me. The Sprout sings, but on his own time. He isn't much for large, structured groups and he certainly doesn't enjoy sharing me.
The Queen's Diamond Jubilee was really special. Although we had to watch it on TV, it didn't take away from the festivities. I have really enjoyed seeing England be patriotic. There is bunting and Union Jacks everywhere. Everyone is dressed in the red, white and blue. I hope this continues though the Olympics. The Sprout loves his flag flying monkey shirt.
Yesterday I had Carpel Tunnel Release surgery on my right hand. It has been a challenge not to use my hand, but the pain keeps me in check. On the plus side, I got to sleep until 11 am today. I don't know when I did that last.
On the Sprout front, he is growing by leaps and bounds. He is talking more and more, some of it still complete gibberish, but he says enough to get his point across. One of his more important developments is that he has begun swimming solo during his swimming class.
