Piano Lessons

Sofia has asked about taking piano lessons but we weren't really sure if she was ready for them or when we would even fit them into her schedule.  She has been playing piano on her little Melissa and Doug piano though and learning songs.  We were impressed by how quickly she could figure out the notes for songs just by sound and teach them to herself.  When we would go to her Grammie's house she would spend time playing on a proper piano and would ask me to teach her different songs. (I don't play the piano either but taught myself how to play some songs on the piano from my flute music when I was little).  She picked things up so quickly.  After speaking with a friend whose daughter takes lessons in town we decided it was time to sign Sofia up for lessons.  Her teacher is great and she really likes him.  He seems to really see talent in Sofia and on her second lesson already has her playing with both hands!  Here is a video I took during the first lesson.  I couldn't keep the video going becuase Sofia caught me doing it and it was distracting so I had to just go sit back down but at least I was able to capture some of her lesson.
