Saturday, June 12th--Elise has been taking piano lessons for a year now. Her teacher, Sister Mitchell, is constantly amazed at how well Elise is doing. For only a year of lessons she plays remarkably well. Music seems to be one of her many natural talents and so we want to encourage her. 
She really seems to enjoy it too. For Christmas, she got a Disney songbook for beginners. She's been bringing that to piano lessons since then and picked "Sleeping Beauty" as her recital piece. She practiced it over and over..............and OVER again till she had it memorized (yes, we're sick of that song!). It all payed off when the recital came and she played it perfectly. We are so proud of her hard work and for such an amazing, patient piano teacher that keeps Elise interested in piano playing. There are piano players on boths sides of our family ranging from not-so-great (me and Nate) to absolutely amazing. If Elise continues to be interested in piano I can see her being absolutely amazing as well.Hopefully, in the near future, when the headache of orthodontic work is complete, she will start voice lessons as well.
