After a few years of piano lessons, Eliza has really started to take off! I love it too. I can always tell when she is bored because I will hear her playing through her lesson books.
It has taken a few years, but she's now loving piano lessons and playing the piano. Back in September our piano teacher took a break because she had a baby. Eliza decided she wanted to go back to piano lessons in November knowing how to play all the songs in her performance book. So, she frequently practiced them without my nagging. And, that habit has continued ... I rarely have to remind her to practice her piano. The only thing I wish she would learn is when to play. Many times Jon and I are in the kitchen trying to have a conversation and she will be playing every.single.song as loud as possible. It's so hard for me to ask her not to play when she has the desire to play. But, alas, sometimes we do. She's pretty good about it though.
This is her face when she realized I was taking pictures of her. She was concerned about how her hair looks .... yes, we've hit the preteen stage of making sure she looks good from every angle. She was mortified that I'd gotten the back of her hair. No, sweetie, I was aware enough to make sure I didn't get the big rat's nest in your hair. :-)
