R had her first piano recital this evening. It was held at an old Baptist church with beautiful stained glass windows . . . about thirty kids played various instruments or sang. R played “Money Can’t Buy Everything” (Alfred).
She played in front of about 175 people.
She played flawlessly.
She even earned herself a trophy.
We are so proud of her!
And she is proud of herself . . . rightfully so.
And while we are on the topic of our girl child . . . this picture was taken on Halloween.
She is beautiful. I know, I know . . . I’m slightly biased . . . but wow.
Proud Mama,

I can’t wait to hear you play. Looks like yu need a baby grand to reach the pedals. Congrats on the trophy. It must have been scary to play for so many people. You knew they all loved you and you gave them your best. Keep up the practicing.
