Paige had her first piano recital and rose to the occasion. She perfectly played, "The Mermaid Song" and "Redeemer of Israel" for our intimate audience. 
I think the "cherry" shirt gave her good luck. Also, the cute side bun that she fashioned herself.
We love her teacher and I thank the heavens that we have her. Paige's mother {me} vaguely entertained the idea of teaching her in these beginning stages, but we are both happier now that I am out of the equation all together and she has this lovely woman to teach her instead.
I try not to beam too much when I hear Ms. Paige play. My favorite is when she sits down at the piano to a song that I am working on and begins to sight read the notes and sings along. When she drags her feet to the piano, I remind her that she has a natural talent and God wants her to use it to bless others--not hide it.
Plus, he didn't give her those beautiful fingers fer nothin'.

Isn't it amazing when you realize your kids played it heaven? Isabella can play anything by ear and is just excelling in lessons w/ gma. My mom said she's never had a student like her. It makes me so happy.
