Lily participated in fall festival and was soooo excited when she got her score sheet back – 100 points, a perfect score! I am biased, but also realistic and when I say she deserved it, you'll have to believe me. She practiced extra hard and played her very best. She put a lot of pressure on herself to do her best and she should feel so proud of what she was able to accomplish. Her teacher will be helping her enter another festival in a few month for song writing. Lily has made up a few of her own songs (songs that I thought she had learned from a piano adventure book). Her teacher will help her put her song on paper and record it to CD. I am excited for Lily to do this and she is very excited to spend her own $10 to do it. She found out about this festival right after her birthday and decided this would be the perfect use of her birthday money – I agreed.
Speaking of birthdays….Lily is now sporting two digitis when she writes her age down, 1 – 0. She had a fun birthday. She really wanted to invite friends over to play – so that is what we did. Her friends rode the bus over and then I took them to pizza hut to get their book-it pizzas. After that we traveled to the new Kiwi Loco Yogurt shop and got some yummy yogurt. Her friends from her church class, Hannah Miler and Emma Moss, were who she chose to celebrate with this year.
