Piano recital....

Ok, so I teach piano lessons to 15 children a week, and my own children will not let me teach them to play. Why? Because they want to teach me a piano lesson, not the other way around. Well, last Monday, Niah decided that she wanted a piano lesson.


Da da da daaaa! Horray!!


So she learned a song on the two black keys. It goes like this:
Left hand walking, 2, 3,2, 3, left hand walking 2, 3, 2, 3.....
Right hand marching, 2, 3, 2, 3, Right hand marching, 2, 3, 2, 3.....


"Mom, can I play in your recital tonight?"

My sort of shy 4 year old is asking to play.... what do I say? Do I invite the grandparents? What if she c-h-i-c-k-e-n-s out?? Do I bring the camera? She hasn't really had lessons like my other students...

"Ok, honey"

Here's what happens...
