After morning aerobics, the residents moseyed and shuffled and walkered their way to their seats in the dining room to hear the pianists. All thirty of them.
It was my son Gresham’s first recital so I recorded it. For grandparents to see. But I’m too proud not to show it to you too.
He soft rocks these carols expertly despite being very nervous. And he has good hair. (Watch your back, Bieber.)
So proud.

Way to soft rock it Gresham!
On anther note.
A friend of ours little 2 year old has been admitted to the hospital with Kawasaki Disease. Thought of you because the first time I’d ever heard of it was when G had it.
If you get a chance to pray for her, her name is Violet and she’s on the cardiac floor of our local children’s hospital.
Thanks!

Krissy says:
Very nice!
RaD says:
So cute! Love the look of concentration on his face, it reminds me of my own son (Cept’ when he drums his tongue is usually hangin’ out!).
Beth says:
Did your dad sound this good when he was your age G?

Way to go Gresham!
Tater Mama says:
Bravo! He didn’t look a bit nervous.
I was such a horrible piano player that my family applauded when I asked to stop taking lessons.
I’m sure the audience loved it.

Well played!!
Matthew W says:
Great job, Gresham!
On a side note, I caught a glimpse of the back of the book when he was turning the page between songs… I remember playing out of that very book when I was a kid! Fun stuff.
Amy Schwartz says:
Ah! Loved it! Brought back memories of my own first recitals, Bastein piano books and all! Only difference was that my nervousness showed. ๐ You have much reason to be proud of Gresham, Shaun!

I finally got my 9YO to stop playing quarter notes like a busted up machine gun, so you know, win all around.
