Taylor's first piano recital was amazing. I was so proud of her. I always worry for her because she gets so nervous beforehand. She just sat down and played like she had been taking lessons for two years. I shouldn't have been surprised since we knew she is musically gifted. It's scary how easily she plays or sings music. She has been singing since she was a little girl. I remember the first time I heard her humming in the backseat of my car to music on the local radio station. She was like 9 months old. We have been going to CA since she was 6 months old, so she would sing on video and call herself "The Queen of California." Now, I stand back and admire her so much. With voice lessons, over the past 4 years, she has become a singer that can sing an array of music from country to opera. Now she has taken up piano lessons. When she was in second grade, she used to play songs on the piano by figuring out the notes by hearing them as she touched the keys. So we figured it was time to get her piano lessons. She has a wonderful teacher, that happens to be a parent of one of my kindergartners from last year. It was fun to go to the piano recital and see other Heckethorn students as well showcase their talents. Kudos to her teacher, Mrs. Hawley.
