She wrote a long book, a diary really, from which this is one passage:<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Pictorial Music, Needlepoint, and Our Children\u2019s Instruments<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1977 I finished a needlepoint tapestry that I designed and stitched; I\u2019m very proud of that! Dave made an attractive frame for it with pine scraps from wood he got from an old log house; some of the \u00a0the same wood is used for the wainscoting in our living room.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tapestry illustrates the musical instruments our five musical children played: \u00a0Carolyn, clarinet and piano; Jonathan, trumpet and piano; Ellen, clarinet and piano; Paul, cello and piano; and Erik, trombone and piano.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paul liked Bach\u2019s <em>Minuet in G<\/em> and learned it from me, note after note by rote. We worked on it a few notes at a time until he could play as much of it as he was interested in, and when I look at the needlepoint\u2019s bottom border showing six measures of <em>Minuet in G<\/em>, I think of Paul.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The music along the top border is also by JS Bach: <em>Jesu, Joy of Man\u2019s Desiring.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Paul gave me a metronome for Christmas, 2000. \u00a0It\u2019s just like metronomes I used in my teachers\u2019 studios when I was a girl. You can hear it ticking, but you can also see it waving back and forth, out of the corner of your eye. So, it\u2019s easier to follow than electronic metronomes with sound but nothing visual. Thanks again, Paul and family!<\/p>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s All Relative<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One day when I was helping test students\u2019 eyes during the annual health tests in Union Elementary School (the Homebound Teacher helped with this every year), a little girl looked up at me and said, \u201cYou are really old.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I hadn\u2019t thought of 55 as being all that old, until that moment. I replied to her, \u201cYes, I really am old; I\u2019m 100 years old! Did you know that?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The best part of this story is that not a week later, during one of my visits with Sadie M. \u2013 my music buddy \u2013 and without her knowing this little story of a young child\u2019s curiosity, she said to me, \u201cElaine, I envy you your youth.\u201d Thanks, Sadie! I needed that!
