Music FHE

We learned about music appreciation tonight for FHE. I put some different classical songs on the CD player and asked them what it reminded them of or what it made them feel like. Kierra's standard answer was "it makes me feel like standing." Then on Vivaldi's Spring, when I asked Kierra what she thinks of when listening to it, she exclaimed, "The Little Einsteins!!!" To which Audrey corrected her that it was The Little Einsteins Halloween. Ya, we watch a lot of TV, can you tell?

So by the time we had closing prayer, Jeromy and I were already battling the giggles. Audrey started out by saying something that we thought was pretty funny (Jeromy and I were smirking at this point, but keeping the giggles back). Then she said, very seriously, "We're thankful we can be quiet during prayers." (Jeromy and I are REALLY battling giggles back now!) Further reprimanding her parents: "And we're thankful we can be reverent." We lost it. How in the world are we supposed to model reverence when they're so darn funny!
