Piano


The girls have begrudgingly taken piano lessons for about 2 years now.  I have held my ground (pat, pat) and despite the grueling Wednesday afternoons and daily 20 minute practice sessions, have not let them quit.  I have yet to meet an adult who doesn't wish they would have stuck with piano lessons - and by gosh my girls will know how to play piano!  Steve thinks it's flat out cold hearted to make them continue, me, I think I should be praised for helping them develop their talents. :)  Anyway, my endurance recently paid off when Rylee told me she loved piano.  SHE LOVED PIANO!!  I literally fell to the ground in shock.  WAHOO!  This was said the day she memorized a new song and passed off 3 new songs (they earn $.50 for every song they pass off - I'm a big fan of bribery) but I am sure she meant it!  I also enjoyed a short reprieve when their piano teacher(whom I adore), Sister Marianne Peredes, told Madison she had natural talent for piano and should really continue practicing...maybe I can get someone to say that every few weeks or so.
