Playing the Piano


Adriana's favorite thing is playing the piano. Not only is she good at learning new songs and practicing them over and over until they are right, she also likes to play around on the piano repeating different combinations of notes and exploring the piano. Today she was intently listening as she went down the scale with the same pattern of finger movements. I had to take a picture of how "into" it she was.
I often find her laying on the piano bench playing with one hand, odd but I guess it is relaxing for her. She can read the notes now but she'll often refer to songs like, "Mom, you know the 4 4 3 2 1 3 4 4 2 3 1 song?" About a year and a half ago I felt it was really important to get a piano, but we didn't get really serious about it until this summer, and now I understand why it was so important to get one.

I LOVE that she's into the piano now. I wish that I lived there so I could give her piano lessons. I always wanted to teach piano.

That's so cool. I really want a piano too, one day! And that is awesome that you can teach them how to play!
