Madison had her very first violin concert last week. Woodlake Elementary offers free violin lessons all year long, so of course we jumped on the opportunity. From the first lesson she loved it, and did as well as a 1st grader would be expected to do. Her class started out with 4 kids, then as time went by 3 kids, then 2 kids, then just Madison. She puts on concerts for her stuffed animals in her room all the time. Our dog Tiffi sits outside of her room and howls to the wonderful sounds. As the end of the year was approaching her teacher told us that she is doing unusually well for her age, and has learned to play over 20 songs!!!!
Every morning at school they have what they call "Morning Meeting". The whole school gathers for announcements, they sing the school song, etc... So last week it was the violinists turn to entertain the other kids, teachers, and parents. Madison was very nervous, and told me she could not go through with it. What Madison does not realize is that she is very strong, and can do it......so she did, and did it well. The violin teacher will offer lessons through the summer to keep her brushed up on her music, and get her ready for next year.
GREAT JOB MADISON!!!!!
