Wordless Wednesday: Creating Music

Music is a big part of my life.

It always has been and continues to be until this day. When I was younger, they gave us a very basic introduction to the keyboard. It wasn't anything more than here is the middle C and the easiest song you can play while only using two fingers. It might not have even been that hard.

While I did eventually learn to play an instrument, the piano is not one of them. I regret that to this day and wish I could play beautiful music the way I have watched some other very talented pianists do, but it is hard to teach an old dog new tricks. I have been slowly teaching myself, but I am not sure I will ever be as good as those who learned when they were much younger.

However, I have been able to give my daughters both a chance to start playing the piano. They may stick with it, they may not, but I am glad they have at least gotten the opportunity.

There is nothing better than filling your life with music!

There is nothing cooler than watching your own children create music.

    Awesome stuff!! I learned to play the piano and guitar and played through college. But, alas, I don't play much any more. I should get back into it, but I'm so doggone busy at the moment, I'm not sure when I'll have time. It's still fun, though. :) Tweeted and Happy Wednesday!

    I know how to play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" on the piano :) I taught myself how to play guitar when I was 13 and wish I'd have kept up with it.

    I bet seeing your kids grow up and play music must be the best thing ever! I hope our future kids take to music too, well at least like their mom and not like me!

    I love the piano. How's that for a fairly meaningless reply. Another cup-o-Joe is needed. Sorry.

    I always wished I could play piano. I guess it's never too late? Great photo. :)

    Great photo...I took piano when I was younger but didn't stick with it. I think the fact that the piano teacher used to make me sing along to the music had something to do with it. I hated to sing and my brother used to stand in the kitchen and laugh at me. Sounds like your girls are off to a much better start than I was!

    I love this picture! I wish I'd learnt to play a musical instrument like the piano when I was younger. It looks like a great way to lose yourself into music!
