11:01 amShould have been more specific…
Dialog on the way into the music store:
Me: Don’t touch anything in here.
Them: Ok, mom
Me: Seriously, there are some very nice, very expensive pianos in here. Don’t touch them.
Them: Ok, mom
Me: We just need to get your piano books. It will take 2 seconds. Can you keep your hands off of stuff for 2 seconds?
Them: Yes, mom
Two seconds later:
Loud, kazoo “music” heard.
Me: Jachin, what are you doing?!?
Jachin: (talking through the kazoo) What? I’m not touching it with my hands, just blowing on it with my mouth.
Me: (wondering how I could have overlooked the “mouth” thing during my hands-off speech; pointing to a sign stating “IF YOU BLOW ON IT, YOU BUY IT”)
Jachin: Yay! I get a kazoo!
At least he wasn’t blowing on a $400 trumpet.
ps- on a less-irritated note, their piano lessons are progressing well.

Ha! Leave it to a kid to find a loophole, those little geniuses.
