this guitar girl of ours!!!

Sure she’s one heck of a talent and a beauty! Haha. That’s our girl! Don’t argue guys, she is our own so you can’t blame us for being too conceited when it comes to telling the world about what she’s showing us that she can do this and that! Her Lolo [the dad's dad] is a great guitar man! The uncle doctor [the dad's brother] can play whatever song you’ll sing [that's as long as there is a note in it!]. The dad plays a little, especially when it’s the mom who’ll do the singing! Hmm…. so a family of music, if I may say. Well, just a lover of melody I guess.

She’s only two years and two months and yet, she knows a lot of songs already. She have memorized a lot of children’s songs in fact. We taught her, yes. And some, she has learned just by repeatingly watching her dvds. But mostly, she hears us singing every day, that’s twice a day– morning and evening when we do our daily devotional here at home. And during that time, it’s either Lolo’s playing the guitar or Ate Cyndi’s playing the piano. So you see, it’s simply inherent.
If you will know how I got that cutie guitar of hers, you will surely find it memorable. Would you like me to tell you then? Well, even if you refuse, I still will be telling it here. Hehe…

Over a year ago, I started doing paid blogging. It was August last year when I was gotten paid for my first tasks. When it accummulated to reach $25, without a single doubt, I paid for this guitar right away to celebrate my first payday. How’s that? Now, as long as this music girl of ours kept playing, even if I won’t be blogging here in time, I still will have a sweet and pretty thing to cherish. I knew how much Triz loves music even then. And when she has learned to hold the guitar the proper way, I realize I never made the wrong choice in getting one for her.

P.S.
When we were in Philippines, we went shopping one time and we were in the sports department of Gaisano Mall in CDO. There were balls and bikes and scooters in the area, and some more other huge toys for big boys. But what sparked Triz’s interest most? The little wooden yukelele that’s hanging in the very corner of that section along with regular guitars and a cello. It’s what she’s been pointing the whole time with us adults ignoring her. When I realized she was interested in it, I went ahead to inquire of the price. It was P595.00 ($14) so I readily refused to get it telling her that she got a prettier one here. LOL When the Tita found it out, good thing that she immediately get it from me and proceeded to the counter to pay for it. So there, Triz got it on that very day. And from then on, she was known by her cousins in CDO to be the guitar girl. LOL
