I was surprised to see how much interest my oldest niece took. Let's just say, she was less than thrilled with her sewing themed Christmas presents! But, running the LA is Sooooooo much fun, even she couldn't resist!
On a side note, my littlest niece (3 1/2 yrs), in whose basement the machine is set up, was NOT happy about me running the LA machine. She cried and cried until her daddy, my brother, finally took her upstairs. I think she just got a little time out in her room, but her attitude was completely adjusted when she came back down! I think it was about having auntie's undivided attention because she did pretty much the same thing earlier in the day when I was practicing the piano for an upcoming wedding rehearsal. It didn't matter where she was in the house, she came crying and hollering if she heard me playing the piano!
