I received quite a bit of feedback regarding a musical instrument for Johanna--thank you!
Several of you suggested the piano. Just to clarify, I play the piano, and taught private lessons full-time until my home started filling up with many small children. :) I teach both Johanna and Eliana piano lessons, but I was looking for another instrument that would blend nicely with the violins and piano. Unfortunately, we only have one piano, and Mommy claims it when we're doing music together....:)
One lovely reader offered to send a lap harp to Johanna---what a blessing!!!!!
Shhhh! Johanna doesn't know yet, and will probably receive it for Christmas---if Mommy can wait that long to see the joy on her face when she opens it!
What a great idea!! We have 1 piano, and 1` weighted keyboard. With 6 kids at home, they both stay busy. I have always loved harp music, a lap harp would be the perfect start=)
ReplyDeleteOne of the most beautiful weddings I have ever attended, was outdoors, with the only music being from a full sized harp.
