. . The piano is silent. I am going to miss those days of piano lessons
and piano practice and all that was involved. ALL of it. The
frustrations, the joys, the sense of being "no good" and then the
delight when it came together. I know that all that came out of
the years of piano lessons was not just learning to play the piano. There
is so much more and we have talked about this . . . I do not miss
the piles of flip-flops in our small entry way. Or the dishes sitting
here and there. But I miss the piano!
