I have a serious love/hate relationship when it comes to Evelyn and the piano. I LOVE that she is so talented. Love that she can play complicated pieces and advance so quickly through her books. But hate the fact that I must sit with her at the piano EVERY single time she practices to ensure there is no meltdown or tremendous show of frustration. My mom didn't sit with me while I practiced!?! Why can she not go it alone, I wander? Is it terrible that I don't enjoy sitting with her?? Why is it so frustrating for both she and I when we hold these daily practice sessions? These are the questions I ponder.
But neither of us is willing to give up for the moment. Evie is no quitter… and neither is her mother!
