Learning a new skill

I forgot to post this but about a month ago we bought a piano!

My three goals for 2013 were to..
1) Get healthier
2) Become greener and
3) Learn a new skill.

The skill I chose to learn is the piano. Okay, I'll admit that learning piano isn't a new thing for me (I think I took 2-3 years of lessons) but this is the first time that I actually enjoy it. Before, in my younger, adolescent years, piano practise was more of a chore. I also wasn't the most patient child either. I got frustrated extremely quickly when I couldn't do things and hence why my piano "career" ended so fast.

But now I'm older, wiser(?) and a little bit more patient with things. I actually get excited when I think about playing. Maybe it's because it is something that I chose to do myself.

I'm really excited to progress! (I usually don't blog about things that aren't exciting anyway) I'm excited that one day I will be able to play the church hymns and, perhaps one day, we can have family music time together! Maybe Ella will join in too (I wonder if she'll play piano... Or maybe guitar like her daddy.... )
