Piano Lessons!

A few weeks ago, our sweet friends...the Tate's....offered to give us a piano. When they asked if we wanted it, I automatically said, "yes!"....even though I hadn't seen the piano. I didn't really care what it looked like or sounded like or anything! I just wanted my kids to have the opportunity to learn to play the piano. However, when I went to look at the piano to get the measurements, to make sure it would actually fit in my house, I was overwhelmed at the beauty and grandeur of the piano. It is a baby grand piano, well over 100 years old. It is so beautiful! It has fancy carved legs and it has been played by Liberace. It has a great sound and best of all, my kids love playing it!

I immediately signed Jackson and Savannah Grace up for piano lessons. They started with Mrs. Lisa Hicks this past week. The first week of piano lessons went remarkably well. Jackson can play some form of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and Savannah Grace is learning her finger numbers. Maybe I'll learn to play the piano, too! Hey, I can already play a mean Twinkle Twinkle.
