We went to Hamilton on Saturday night, to hear Eva play in the All-District Middle School Concert Band. They sounded great! Eva looked great, too. She talked me into making her this green skirt. She was going to try sewing it about a year ago, but got distracted by other stuff. It was already mostly cut out, and all I had to do was sew it. Eva and her blond hair look fabulous in green.
She’s pleased to play the oldest clarinet in the whole band—over thirty-five years old! It’s the one I played in junior high and high school. The handle was beginning to fall apart, so we repaired it with a scrap of beautiful leather, courtesy of Wendy Allen Saddlery.
Angel count: three done and four to go! When one is done, I hang it from a tack in our kitchen. Ella usually notices it right away. We are hanging them on our ficus tree, which is inside for the winter.
