So, Kate has never heard of Hot Cross Buns. A simple song played on the recorder.

And then, when I play it to her over the phone, she uses her keypad to play it.

It was surprisingly good.

I can remember having to learn that on recorder in fourth grade. It wasn't optional, all fourth graders had to take recorder. After that, you got to choose an instrument, or none.

Exactly. We had to play the recorder. I remember some kids broke his, because he didn't want to play.
