Mother knows best ... especially when she is connected to her child. Several years ago Zion told me he wanted to play piano. I jumped right on it and enrolled him at Levine School of Music. I chose Levine because I wanted him to be in a place that would allow him to grow musically. Consistency and continuity is very important to me. After a year, Zion started to groan about having to go to piano lessons. Then one day on the ride over to THEARC, he said to me, "mom, you know I don't want to come to my lessons, but once I get there, I really enjoy it and feel good about myself." How sweet it is! I can't wait to see how accomplished he becomes years from now. It's not about being a professional, it's about cultivating the inner artist in us all.
