project 52, week 40

i am thankful to have such a wonderful piano teacher for our kids.  his patience, his positive attitude, his patience, his encouraging words, his patience…  well, i think you get the picture.

i love, love, love that he asks them for prayer requests and then prays with them before each lesson.

and that he often reminds them that music is a gift from God and that we can use it to glorify Him.  also appreciate how he humors this boy and the many tangents he takes.  (did i mention something about patience?)

because i don’t remember smiling this big during my piano lessons as a kid.

and i certainly don’t remember giving high fives to my piano teacher.  ever.

so my prayer is that our kids would always remember that music is indeed a gift from God and would love playing and leading others into worship with it.  and too, that some of that patience would rub off on me.  because uh, helping them practice during the week is killing me.
