Sabra & Cambree made up their first song in about 10 minutes and spent a day making the piano music for it. I decided to document this momentous occasion so they can look back on it later on. We have an “official” music video planned, too. Pin It

Windy Ridge Interview
I saw this idea on Pinterest. A list of questions to ask the children so that in later years you can look back at what was on their minds. I have seen this idea in action on other blogs and thought “how cute! I shall do this project with my darlings!” It didn’t work out...
Gutrid, Stew & Flank
