Spring Concert

So last fall in anticipation of hopefully receiving a baby, I quit my job as a bookkeeper for a small private school in downtown Savannah. In a terrified and clueless state, I wondered if I could make enough money teaching a few piano lessons to send Elsie to her school two days per week so that she could continue with the friends and teachers she loves.
God gave me these 5 students whom I have truly enjoyed. They started last November, and just tonight gave their first concert. We had everything from Yankee Doodle to Beethoven, and it really was wonderful. I am so thankful for what I get to do with them, for getting to watch them learn and grow, for seeing the light turn on when they get it. They played well tonight and made me proud.
