Emma girl had her very first piano recital last night. She started piano lessons at the beginning of last school year and the past few months have been pretty hard for her. She's had a hard time feeling motivated in correcting her mistakes in the practices at home. There were lots of moments of optimism but also some moments of lots of whining but SHE DID IT! She pulled through and worked her tail off toward the end and she did a great job. We are so proud of her. She played "Haunted Mouse" and part of "Two Minuets" by Bach. She also gave a great introduction just before she played.
I hope this is a lesson learned for her and all our children that things in life may not come easy but with hard work and dedication, we can DO HARD THINGS. She did it, and we are so proud of her.
Her piano teacher Jennifer Anderson has been so wonderful. She is so patient and loving with Emma and Emma loves her. We are very pleased at how she teaches these children.
Emma has had help from Grandma Phair and Oma on her pieces. She has especially spent much time with Oma the last couple weeks working on the piano pieces. Oma has a great way of teaching Emma. Emma listens to her. :) Thank you, Oma and Grandma.
