Yesterday Faith performed in her very first piano recital! It has been just under a year that she began taking lessons, so it was a fitting celebration of her first year of playing the piano! Hearing the different students of her teacher (especially some of the older students!), makes me excited about what Faith too can learn musically!
She did very well with the two short pieces that she played. As she played the last notes and walked back down towards Steve and I, a huge smile adorned her face. And she shared with us, "I didn't miss a single note!" Even though she refused to admit it, she was nervous and thankful to be finished!
And it was a very good thing that the recital was yesterday because today...
she ended up in the Urgent Care center with a broken arm! We were preparing to leave for the beach, and she and Shane were playing in the backyard with their boogie boards. Apparently she fell of the board Shane was pulling, and she must have braced herself with her arm! So the beach was out and onto the urgent care. Thankfully Steve was home and could stay with the younger two kids while I took her in for x-rays.
She thought that a little chocolate ice cream would help her arm feel better! And I'm sure it did! Tomorrow we go to see and orthopedic doctor to have the arm further examined. From what I was told, it's a clean break that should heal up very well! While it's not exactly how we would want summer to begin, we are also thankful that it was not any worse!
