Can I just say...

This makes me really happy:

{Did you think I was going to say something profound about the election? Psych!!}

N has officially started lessons with me and is doing so well.  It has been a great bonding experience for the two of us and she is being very grown up and responsible about the whole thing.  I'm just so excited for her, and quite proud.  L is interested too, and takes a {very} short lesson here and there, but there's plenty of time for her, so I'm not rushing it.

I'll write more about it later, but I just had to let some of my heart swelling out here on the blog before going to bed for the night!
