How do I break out of that?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11972398512692028734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-70553353879841840.post-77199847306313744712008-12-04T13:53:00.000-08:002008-12-04T13:53:00.000-08:00Oh!!!

We also give lessons and last year we also went to twice a month for that same reason--makes for a bit more peace, especially on the "off-weeks"! <BR/><BR/>Music has been a big part of our lives, so we made the decision to do the lessons, but I tried to make that the ONLY day we were out of the home (combined violin and cello lessons the same day as well as shopping--made it crazy but it was nice to only be once a week! ;)<BR/><BR/>One reason my dc didn't have piano lessons younger was that I couldn't find a piano teacher that was flexible with our schedule--but now we have two! One dd pays for her own and the teacher comes here, the other goes to the teacher but again, it's on our regular shopping day!<BR/><BR/>Sorry so long--but I wanted to share that yes--when it's right for your family, it WILL work out (even if a dd has to wait several years to get a good piano teacher who has ended up being *perfect* for her! :)<BR/><BR/>Blessings!<BR/><BR/>TrischAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-70553353879841840.post-52383597735085700432008-11-14T13:21:00.000-08:002008-11-14T13:21:00.000-08:00I sooooo agree with you on this!
