About a year ago, we converted all our CDs to MP3 format, and were thrilled that we no longer had to store them or have bulky stereo equipment to play them.  We didn’t anticipate that the kids would have such difficulty leaving the iPod on it’s deck (which it where it needs to be to play).  Cole and Delaney just couldn’t resist opening up the cabinet and pulling it out, which is really ironic, since these two love music and want to have it on all the time.  Unfortunately, we actually stopped listening to music for a long time, because we just put the iPod out of reach as a temporary solution.  Today, however, we decided to give it another try.  All the kids had a great time dancing to the music, but Delaney was ecstatic!  She jumped around, danced, waved her arms, and ran around in circles.  I definitely hope we will be able to continue with the music, because I think we have all missed it.
