Today I would do anything for my daughter.

Today I am downloading a video of our family playing piano at my daughter's recital. Now the funny thing is, I haven't played piano for 25 years. In fact, I am still trying to figure out how I got myself into this situation! I vaguely remember my daughter asking me if I would play a trio with her for the recital. Thinking that she was confused and I wouldn't really have to do it, I smiled and answered "yes"; after all, who would expect me to play again after 25 years... Guess what? She wasn't confused and once I committed she wouldn't let me out. Now you need to understand that I really, really, really don't like to get in front of people. My daughter really, really, really likes to be in front of people. So I went through with it. My husband is also taking piano lessons from my daughter's teacher and he had to do it also. I hope you enjoy our performance and remember that no matter what we will do for our kids (even take up an instrument again after 25 years and do IN FRONT of people), God is willing to do so much more. He was willing to be separated from His own child just for us!
