You're Sharp!
Today is our kids last day of piano lessons before summer! We are so excited for summer but we are also so excited to see their progess in piano over the last 8 months. We absolutely LOVE their Piano teacher. She is so kind and sweet and soft spoken and our kids just love her. She is caring and totally understanding when we miss a week or get too busy to practise everyday. SHE. IS. THE. BEST!!
Every May I worry that this will be our last year with her. She is young and just entering such a fun stage of adulthood so I know at somepoint she likely won't have time to do these weekly lessons. Nevertheless, we apprecite all that shes done and hope we get another season with her!
As much as we love our piano teacher, our kids always say they don't like piano. In fact, I don't know hardly any kids who actually LOVE taking piano BUT in the middle of the week, with no reason at all, I will often hear them plucking away at those keys paying songs when they get board. It is the best sound listening to them play and as much as they say they don't like piano and want to quit, I know they secretly are so happy they can play and that they do actually enjoy it.
Fun fact, I was in piano lessons when I was little.. like REALLY little. But I also "hated piano lessons" and so I quit them. I regret this to this day. I cannot read notes, I have no clue anything piano related and I really REALLY wish I did. I want our kids to have the foundation of notes and being able to play the piano. I don't need them to be the next Mozart but having a foundation to play will be so nice to have.
I love seeing their little hands playing the piano. I love hearing it from the other room and am amazed at their ability to play. We are so proud of them.
Of course we had to get a little something for the best piano teacher out there! We hope she ejoyes her summer!!
And she even gave each of them the cutest little handout. GUYS! She really is the sweetest!
We are grateful for her and I am grateful for these three kids who put one lesson infront of the other and kept going!
Looking forward to the summer and looking forward to more lessons in the fall!
