I was watching the kids play the other day. Just soaking in their little manerisms and being in the moment. I love engraving those moments into my memory!
They were playing at the piano. And as I watched them, I realized just how different they are!
Lito's delicate hands were gracing the keys as he focused at really trying to make a tune out of his 'song'. He was very deliberate about which keys he played and in what rythm. He's never taken a lesson but he asked for one that day! His hands were curved and positioned very naturally as though he was already a pianist! He was so focused and really wanted to figure out how the piano worked. I took lessens when I was young so I could tell looking at his positioning that he may actually be ready for beginner's classes!
Solana on the other hand ... she was more intrigued at figuring out how loudly she could bang on the keys! She had her hands completely flat as she barrelled into the piano! She laughed at all the silly sounds she was making and she could care less about strategy! I know she's only 18 months old but I don't remember Lito being so carefree at this age! She seems to be the more outgoing of the two while Lito seems to be the more conservative of the two.
I love them both so much! I'm so intrigued by their differences and already seeing how I have to parent differently to each of them. We're in for a fun ride!
