   Didn’t I tell you it would go well? I am happy for you and the students.

   My recital turned out wonderfully. All of my students were able to attend and about 30 parents and friends….all in my living room. They were ready to play and dressed for the occasion. I got pictures of each of them sitting at the Grand piano at the end of the recital, along with a group picture. I performed two numbers…and couldn’t believe how nervous it made me. I gave each of them large Snow Globes with their picture inserted in it. The younger brothers and sisters recived smaller snow globes and I even gave out a prize to the parent sitting in the “lucky” chair. I introduced each student by telling some interesting facts about them. One of my students’ father is a head football coach at a local high school and was State-bound the next evening. I presented him with all the clippings about his team that I had saved thru out his season. I served punch and cookies and they were all out the door in about an hour and a half. Lots of work on my part, but, oh so worth it. Kids are great and their efforts are worth celebrating.
