Now or Never

Our new baby:

Well, at 5'10" she's no baby, but I'm keeping the leather booties on her foot pedals for now, regardless.

The piano doesn't belong to Jaclyn, but the timing of buying it does. Jaclyn completed her RCME Grade 10 Piano with First Class Honors (84!) and is now preparing for her ARCT Performers Certificate which will likely take her 2 years to accomplish.

Why would I buy a grand after she moves away to college?

(Unless I bought it 2 years from now to keep her home for college.)

(OH!)

(Too late now.)

All babies are beautiful, but that one is especially striking. I thought I was done having babies, but I think I could find room for one more, if it was of that variety. Congratulations! I know it will get lots of love and lots of use.

Natalie said...

It's beautiful, I can't wait to hear it played! And, congrats to Jaclyn on a fabulous mark on her exam! Wow!

Janine said...

Love it. I can't quite read the brand - is that that Chinese made one? If it is, let me know how you like it. I want one of these too.

Wow. Wow. Beautiful!

What did you do with your upright? Does Jaclyn's room now have an organ and a piano in it?

What a big baby! ;0) Congrats! Your daughter is amazing, I remember that video you posted a while back and she DESERVES a piano like that!

April said...

I imagine that was a long gestation, but she certainly is lovely.

I wish we could have heard Jaclyn on it firsthand.

Congrats on your new addition! She is beautiful!!

Our crate is from Bay Isle online model 1842. Hope that helps!

Happy summer!

Seriously, my dream piano! Natalie mentioned your new piano when we were conversing about when she sold hers - I was instantly taken to 5 years from now when we settle down and hopefully get one of these things! Jaclyn must be heaven!
