Mostly Silas only plays our keyboard when one of us is playing, which usually causes us to stop playing for lack of available keys… (Still working on the concept of “sharing.”) However, a few days ago, Silas plinked on the keyboard for a rather long time. He was “plinking” too, not smashing or banging as usual.
There was a point before this that Silas was indeed sitting just exactly like Schroeder, but of course when I grabbed the camera he ran over to see about that. He went back to playing though, varying positions a little every now and then.
It was so cute to see him interested in a “still” activity for so long. Normally he is doing this:
climbing SOMETHING. This has been a favorite climb the last few weeks. Our coffee table is behind the couch (an odd arrangement result of trying to fit my fabulous chair-and-a-half into the living room), so he climbs up on that and then over the couch back, then back around to do it over again.
My angel son ALSO discovered Saturday that by climbing a particular storage box in the kitchen he can reach the shelf where I keep my purse and the phone, and the particular incentive for doing so at that time, a sucker. (I gave the sucker away in Sunday School, so there.) He loves to climb!
