All good things come to an end



Good evening!!
It has been a busy week. We have had piano lessons, ball practices, ball games, a tea party, kindergarten graduation and a piano recital just to name a few of our many activities.

The piano recital was wonderful. Mia has such a lovely teacher. He is a retired high school band teacher who happens to belong to the same church we do. Two years ago he started teaching piano to several of the kids from our church. This man is awesome and so patient. He is the kind of music teacher every kid should have. Anyway, Mia likes piano but dislikes practicing so we didn't know what to expect at the recital. She knocked our socks off. She played both songs beautifully. Her teacher even commented that she totally blew him away.


The last day of school was yesterday. Mia was thrilled to be finished, Jack was not. In fact, he sobbed at the end of the day. He was very fortunate to have the very best kindergarten teacher ever. He loves her. She is a family friend and he sees her every day but there is something different when it comes to the teacher/student relationship. I am so very thankful that Jack had the opportunity to have a teacher so passionate about her job and so kind to her students.

I am thankful for great teachers. My kids have had some wonderful teachers this year. Thank you Sandy, Dannika, Tawnya, and Ken for teaching my kids. Your love for the Lord is evident in the way you teach. You are all so very appreciated.

Have a great weekend.
