Piano Recital

Megan had her piano recital on Thurs May 22. It was a great evening. It's a great group of kids and an exceptional teacher! They all did such a good job. Megan played 2 songs.

This is The Butterfly Waltz by June C. Montgomery



Megan forgot parts of the song. She was disappointed in her performance. I tried to make her feel better, but she's always hard on herself when she doesn't feel she met her own expectations. These are the same songs she played for the Music Festival in March and received a "Superior Rating". She had them memorized really good for that and over the past couple months slacked off on her work on them. All but one of the girls Megan's age and older forgot parts of their songs. All in all they did great.

This is the second song she played: Etude in C Major by Jean Baptiste Duvernoy


We miss you Steve! Yesterday morning Charlee said "my daddy needs to come home". Then yesterday afternoon she said, "mom, I miss dad". I said you wanna call him? She said yes. So Charlee had a nice "short" conversation with her dad on the phone. Thank goodness for cell phones : )

Have a great weekend everyone. Our neighbors invited us to go camping with them, but I don't feel up to that project by myself with 4 kids so we'll stay home and have a quiet weekend. We are going to rent National Treasurer 2 Book of Secrets! Can't believe only 1 more week of school left!

The piano pieces were beautiful! I think we tend to be the hardest on ourselves - searching and expecting for our perfect selves to always be there. You tell your wonderful daughter she did GREAT! :) And Stacy you tell yourself often that YOU are super woman - doing the best you can (one day at a time)!!! Happy Thursday to you ...
