I want to bang on the drum all day

Dave Smith, president of Am Haskalah, made a little drum for Tani - he asked us it was OK to give it to him and were like sure, great!  Tani has been playing with it ever since but tonight he was really into playing.  He grabbed both drum sticks and would beat the drum for a minute and then shout yay!  He'd then ask Melissa and I if we wanted to hear more and we'd say, "yes we'd like to hear more".  So he'd play some more and this would go on and on except if he banged his finger by accident, in which case he'd make a little pout for a few moments and then continue playing.  Tani's expression when he plays is like a drummer in a rock & roll band - he looks really intense.  I needed to go to the store so I'm not sure how late into the night he played, but at 9:30 pm it is all quiet in the Nevins-Klein house.
