I had to think about this week's theme, "Technology". We have a lot of gadgets around here that I could have taken pictures of, but I tend to dislike taking photos of gadgetry. I also kept trying to consider carefully what really brings joy to our home. The piece of technology that brings me the most joy would have to be our Yamaha DGX500 digital keyboard. I don't know how to play any musical instrument or even how to read music, but my girls have been taking lessons for years. This makes me very happy because they will have the gift of music to share with others throughout their lives. Moments like this make my day.
(Just between the two of us, though, the kitchen appliances and the washer and dryer all weighed heavily in my considerations.)

Excellent choice! What is also wonderful about digital keyboards is the ability to mute the sound and for the budding keyboardist to listen through headphones! =) I would suspect that if your girls have been taking lessons for years, the headphones are no longer needed. Blessings ~ Patricia

Wonderful. My keyboad brings us great joy as well. The kids love to "play" and even occasionally are nterested in learning how to play right.

But I doubt those appliances bring as much joy to your family as the organ. Although, you'd probably have a harder time if one of them broke than if the organ broke. Not sure what I'm trying to say here...
I played too.

Wonderful! And great take on the theme! Beautiful. It is amazing how great those keyboards can sound.

I am so dreaming of a pro keyboard lately, the final frontier in my music arsenal. My daughter is 5 and I want to get her music lessons. How old were yours when they started?

This is the kind of sibling behavior that makes me smile - a good deep smile.

Okay, whew. I was afraid you weren't going to mention those kitchen appliances and your washer and dryer. It might have hurt their feelings.

We have the same piece of technology in our living room. GREAT for piano beginners.
I was random AO blogging. NEAT Find!
Thanks for sharing.
