Spring Piano Recital

In April Mills and Sam had their Spring piano recital.  Sam has been taking lessons for about 8 months and doing well, even though he is not a big fan.   He learned from the best {his big sister} how to argue and resist practicing piano.  But he has moments when I can tell he is enjoying it once he has learned to play a song.  We told him that he needs to be learning something musical and that he can learn to play a different instrument if he wants, or even take some break dancing classes.  It can't be ALL sports.


After 3 years of sweat and tears, my persistence with Millie is finally starting to pay off.  It has clicked with her and for the most part she can learn songs on her own and does not complain when it's time to practice.  {SIGH} She will thank me later, right?


William, however, has shown the most interest so far.  He has been asking to take "keyboarding lessons" since Christmas when he got his new keyboard {which he asked for}.  He just started lessons from my friend Allison and we will see how it goes.  So far, so good.  It's funny he was insisting that it is keyboard lessons and not piano lessons.

Good job guys!
