Spotlight on Tyler

Tyler loves his piano.  He loves music.  He really always has.  This is him 5 years ago.  He just loved to stand by the piano while Aunt Nellie played so he could hear it vibrate.  He would ask her to play Battle Hymn of the Republic because it was really loud!
He had only taken lessons from a teacher for 11 months and he was amazing.  He played two songs, memorized.  He also won the most points of all the students.  You get points for practice time and songs passed off.  He almost double the average in points.  Ella is eager to play like him!



Tyler is still our star reader!  He has set such a good example of the love reading that his two sisters copy him all the time.   He still loves his legos and his pokemon cards.  But he is happy to read.  



Tyler is a lot like me in being clean and organized.  He spent an hour the other day organizing his closet.  I smiled when I saw the section that he labeled.... Collared shirts.  He would wear a collared shirt every day if I let him!
Tylers report cards are always really good.  His teacher wrote- Tyler is strong in all areas.  He is a fine student and you may be proud of the way you have raised him.  It is a real pleasure to work with such a conscientious, bright and well mannered child.
