Hootenany II

Quinn's Aunt Caitlin came over for a visit last weekend. At one point Quinn decided everyone should stand up and play, as is his wont, tugging on everyone's sleeves and saying "Up, up up". I grabbed my guitar and Quinn went to his musical instrument drawer and picked out some tambourines and shakers. We all marched in a circle around the ottoman, singing kid's songs. He was having a grand old time! As were we!

Aunt Caitlin decided to have a seat to take a rest. Well that simply wouldn't do. Quinn immediately ordered her "up up up". Little did she know this was Music Time Boot Camp! Up she got, and he went and got his piano and round and round we went some more. Quinn got his drum. It went on for some time before Quinn finally got a little tired of it. He wanted us all to keep going around in circles singing while he read some books but we weren't so much into that. Finally Aunt Caitlin, and the rest of us, got some respite! Hootenanying is hard work, especially under the strident guidance of our bossy little band leader.
