I'm so excited! We finally got a piano! Well not actually a piano, but close. It's a weighted keyboard and feels like the real thing. I wanted it to last us so we got the grand piano size with 88 keys. I got it so that I can plunk out the tune of a song the kids are learning, but mostly I got it so that Karen could start piano lessons. Her grandmother has taught piano for many years and has offered to teach Karen. Karen is very excited and looking forward to lessons with grandma. Michael has also expressed interest, though he's still too young, but hopefully he will still want to when he is older.


My favorite thing about the piano is that it has 60 songs programmed in and plays by itself! I've got a player piano just like I grew up with except without the piano rolls. It's a lot of fun and the kids love it too. Here is Karen pretending that she is playing.
