Piano Recital

I never thought I would be going to a piano recital to hear one of my own kids performing. I'm not sure why. It's really not a mystery how it came about. It falls into the category of "things you can make happpen" if you just make a choice.

For me it is symbolic of my hopes for my kids to develop in many directions. As parents we all try to lay out a sample of activities that life has to offer in hopes that they will enjoy most of them, and really engage with a few, like mining for gold. When they start to self-select things, when they become actors in the process, that's when things get interesting. Janelle loves piano. And I love that she loves it.
