Piano Recital December 2011

A few days ago we had Isabelle's Christmas piano recital.
She did pretty good and it's getting really fun to see how far she has come in just about a year and a half!
Isabelle never really gets nervous, but I get plenty nervous/stressed for the both of us.






All of the kids did so great, and it was really enjoyable to listen to everyone.


Here she is playing "The Parade of the Tin Soldiers".
She practiced this song for hours, and hours, and hours.
All of the hard work was worth it.
(Sadly my recorder stopped working before the end of the songs.  It's one of those moments that will guilt me as a mother for a long time to come.  Hopefully she won't need counseling later in life because of it!)

I know that one day I'll be looking at my daughter and she won't be dwarfed by the piano.
That makes me a little sad because she looks adorable at this size.
She told me today "Mom, help me!  I keep growing up and there's nothing I can do about it!"
I have had the same thought thousands of times!
Isabelle is really loving piano.  We are so proud of her and all of her hard work!
