Elmo returns!!

Elmo was greeted up and down the streets of Berkeley - a very popular trick-or-treater!! Everyone loves Elmo (especially Rikki).

Younger man in her life...

Rikki has taken a liking to my friends' son Ronen. He is only two, but has the verbal skills of a three-year-old and a sweetness like Rikki's. It's cute to see her protective attitude toward him ; )

Her own violin!!

And boy is she happy about it!'.

Gettin' ready ...

The victorious conqueror!!

Yes, she did it!!! She scaled the mountain of stuffies, conquering them all!'

Fiddling around ...

But ... the fiddle is pretty fun too!! Stay tuned to find out which instrument she pursues first.

To cello or not to cello?

Rikki wants to take cello lessons ... Here she is at family music day trying one out.
