This morning as we were getting ready for church, I heard some little tweeting and tooting noises. I followed the noise only to find my six-year-old daughter in the bathroom with a toothbrush in one hand and a rec*rder in the other.
She was, in fact, brushing her teeth and trying to play the rec*rder at the same time. 
And I just order Megs for both of my girls two days ago. Lord, let them get here soon!

My daughters have Yamaha recorders, Lee Oskar harmonicas, various handheld percussion instruments and yes, green Megs. Itās ALL good. Wait 'til they ask for a full set of Boomwhackers, Jola Tubes and a Thereminā¦or in my case, a violin.

one year we got all our neices and nephews slide whistles for christmas. payback to our siblings for when we were growing up. and we live out of town too. laughed our heads off we did.
I really want to get my nephew one of those miniture drum sets (heās 5), but I donāt think they would ever let me see him again. 
Iād worry more that they would bring him over to stay.
If they do, he will have to put up with me trying to teach myself violin 
I bought my 5 year old grandson a set. I still have them. My son wouldnāt let my grandson have them. 
Yeah, I canāt wait until they get their Megs. My wife is going to love it. 
When I was 5 or 6, my cousin and I woke up to matching drum sets one Christmas morning (Muppets āAnimalā of course 
).
Ya know, I donāt remember ever seeing those drum sets again. Ever.
Seriously.
BTW, glad you got a laugh from the story. Both of the girls are pretty funny. And church was great.
God bless,
Jason
On our last visit with the grand-kids, I gave my granddaughter and grandson each a LBW. I bought a handfull last year for gifts. My daughter-in-law thanked me profusely for the whistles. I told her she would be cursing my soul to hell before the week was through! This conversation occured as three-year-old grandson was romping around the house hitting the third octave on the LBW.
Playing the recorder WHILE brushing teathā¦
And I thought I was a multi-tasker playing the whistle while waiting for this website to load.
Anyway, it could be worseā¦
I heard a story about a friend of a friend trying to play guitar and highland pipe chanter at the same time while singing a song he wroteā¦I donāt want to know what it sounded likeā¦
I am more curious to know what a re*rder was doing in the bathroom in the first placeā¦
The recorder was in the bathroom because thatās where you keep all potty-like thingsā¦ heh heh

hehehe!
Proof positive of the destructive effects of a child with a recorder.
Wow, a new superhero - Recorder Girl. Where, oh where did you find that, Black Mage?
Gives a whole new meaning to the expression āclean as a whistleā.
I found in on another one of my regular forums.
Just tape over the extra holes - then they are playing whistle!
Black Mage, this puppy is going to be on the home page of my āJihad against plastic whistlesā website! Yi yiyiyiyiyiyiyiyi!
