April Fool!

April Fool's Day sure played a nasty trick on us. We all, except Daddy, came down with the yucky stomach flu. First Jewel, then Mommy, then Kitty. What a pathetic bunch of sickies we made. Mommy has taken the longest to recover.

Today was our first foray into the outside world. Jewel began singing lessons this evening. Mr. Steve, her instructor, is a really nice man. We were there for almost 3 hours. But it was all fun. Mr. Steve gave Jewel 6 songs to begin practicing. He also gave Kitty some songs as well. So, it seems that both girls will be taking singing lessons. Mr. Steve didn't mention that he would charge us any extra. He is a very generous man who enjoys teaching more than making money. The girls are very excited about next week's lesson.
