I Swear I Didn't Write It
And you can tell from the rude comments about me.
"Well, you know how Mom’s don’t always keep their promises? Mine doesn’t always
either."
Read the rest of the story about How A Boy Got Inspired to Play the Piano.
The wierd thing is that I think the piano is something Victor really is interested in. He's not just playing it because he thinks all his friends are. He loves it. He hears piano music everywhere we go and most of the time I'm not even aware of it playing in the background. After a beautiful song was played in Church today he said, "Wow, she's really a good piano player." "Yes, you're going to be that good some day," I replied. "No, I'm going to be better," he corrected me.
It gave me chills.

I had to teach myself to play the piano also, but mostly it was because my parents could not afford to get a teacher. Tell him he better watch out, I ended up playing for church by the time I was eleven, accompanying the congregation! Go Gallagher boy!
my kids would say the same things about not keeping my promises....they would also tell you that i say "maybe" just to cover my bases. what a great essay - you must be so proud.
what a great idea too...letting grown ups see the world through the eyes of the growing ups! i like it
Too funny! My kids would echo those sentiments (I'm afraid) about moms who don't always keep their word. Sigh. It's hard to be a consistent, promise-keeping mom in this busy world. :)
Can't wait to see how he progresses on his piano.
