Our oldest sons Ryan and Connor started taking piano lessons this past September. My husband and I both grew up with music instruction being an important part of our lives, so we knew that we wanted to instill the same love of music in our children. They have both done so well and are constantly practicing and playing for fun. It is beautiful to have our home filled with little fingers playing songs throughout the day.
We are so blessed to have an amazing Catholic piano teacher who is willing to teach our children in our home and work with our homeschooling schedule. She then had their first recital at one of our favorite places, the Holy Family Shrine. Ryan played Good King Wenceslaus and Away in a Manger and Connor played We Three Kings and Silent Night. They then also played a duet of Immaculate Mary. It was such a wonderful event to prepare for Christmas during the Advent season.
There was a pair of older brothers at the recital playing beautifully together and I couldn't help myself but close my eyes and image our young men all grown up. I cannot wait to see and hear how they grow in the future years playing the piano and other possible instruments. It was a wonderful recital and I am so proud of them for all of their hard work and commitment in learning something new!
