Musical Talent

I have to say, I am still really impressed. Yesterday, Julia showed Emma how to play "Mary Had a Little Lamb" on the piano. She shows a lot of interest in playing, she asks us to show her how to play Beethoven all the time, and today she went over to the piano while Ben and I were doing lessons and started picking out "Mary" all by herself. She didn't get it right, but what struck me was that she got it mostly right, and that even when she made mistakes she kept right on going. For a three year old to be so determined really strikes me as unusual...and that's saying something coming from me, because in no way do I consider any of my children to be ordinary! :)
