Piano happenings

 This year B has been learning some theme songs.  He learned Ninjago, Gravity Falls, and now he's learning Airbender.  He had a very specific song in mind for Airbender and I had to work with him to transcribe it.  He whistled it.  We looked up a big long youtube medly and picked out the thing closest to the whistling.  I typed it up and then the next week added some left hand action.  B can now play it.  I'm amazed looking back, that he had such a specific auditory memory and he was so stubborn, insisting on me getting it right.  He was very demanding!

He showed me a picture today that had drawings of a nightmare he had last year.  It was very detailed.  He's a kid with strong feelings.  I'm glad he's our boy.
