Your first recital!!!!!
On Saturday, June 28th 2014 you had your first recital. You were amazing and I was so proud. The two weeks leading up to that Saturday was pretty busy, and you weren’t able to practice as often or with as much concentration as I would have liked. We had family over from California for your brother’s baptism. So the house was always chaotic with kids, and house guests. However, you pulled it off beautifully!!! At the time of your recital, you had been playing the guitar for 2 1/2 months. Your guitar teacher is this young kid, chris. Chris is really enthusiastic, and incredibly patient. He teaches the guitar, piano, and violin. You seem really comfortable with him. And he adores you. I am not always available to make your lessons so when I ask how your lesson went, you say,” he called me adorable.” And you are. But more so than adorable you are so sharp and smart. So smart. You were able to catch on with reading music almost instantaneously. After about a week, you were reading notes like a pro. Anyway, you played two pieces from your repertoire. You started with “This old man.” And finished off with ” twinkle twinkle little star.” Chris accompanied you with guitar on both songs. I told you that essentially you’re playing a duet and said that before you start, you are to look at your duet partner and count off so you both start together. You did, and it was awesome. You. Are. Awesome.
