Or, if Shawn were in charge of the title: Stringhams Have Big Instruments. But you can see where that could so easily be misconstrued (as I'm sure it was meant to be), so I couldn't go with that title.
Anyway this really has been at least a 2 year process, and probably longer, but we finally took the next step in the harp world. Samantha outgrew her small harp sometime ago, but making the financial commitment to get a big harp took a really long time. We have looked and looked and worked numbers and looked some more and worked numbers again and Samantha has wished and begged and wished some more and finally, we found a harp that we felt could work out. Shawn brought it home this morning - unbeknownst to Samantha.
It is a beautiful instrument.
Because this was such a huge (family) commitment, she is not actually allowed to use the harp until she has signed an agreement. (I know, we are so annoying as parents - making our kids sign contracts for phones and harps and things.)
Once again, we sure are lucky to have the Toy Story Guys here to help us out. They make fantastic harp guards.
I wish I had been home to see Samantha's face when she walked in, but I did get a very enthusiastic, happy, thankful text from her on my phone.
Now we look forward to years and years of beautiful music from this instrument.
