We bit the bullet. I was just going to teach our kids the piano, and so far it's worked out well with Sam and only so-so with Ada. But our neighbor, who majored in piano performance at BYU and whom Ada loves because she's the Primary chorister in our Ward started teaching piano lessons again last year. I'm super excited because Ada tends to commit herself more thoroughly to excelling in something if it's taught by someone that she loves. If I tell her to practice, she does it without enthusiasm. If her teacher sends her home from a piano lesson with a list of things to practice and check mark... she's immediately on the piano trying to figure it all out for her.
Our kids don't have to be great pianists. That's not my dream, though I would love to hear them play and enjoy it. Jer's and my goal is that they can read music well and use it if they want to. Love it.
