Needing motivation? Just a short 8 weeks ago my two youngest children decided to challenge themselves with learning a new song on the piano. They set out to search for a piano piece that appeals to them, and they both ended up with difficult compositions by the famous David Lanz. These pieces are beyond their current music reading skills and being a mom, I did not (though I was tempted) to say… you can’t do that..it’s too hard for you. I refrained from saying anything and, as most of you already know… they have been showing amazing progress!

This video is week 8 for Jacob…. Jasmine was not ready this time, so I don’t have a new video of her… but you are going to be amazed at the progress Jacob has made from just week 6 to week 8.

If you have not been following this story… you can find the beginning of the story and the first progress videos on the left side of this page, at the bottom of all the links. There is a link called Follow Kids Progress. I think you will enjoy it!

For those who love to make comments… I highly encourage them because both Jacob and Jasmine look forward to hearing your words of encouragement… I think this is what keeps them going!

Here is Jacob’s 8 week video:
