"MISS G FROM LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC WISHES EVERYONE IN THE WORLD A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR!"

Miss G with Little House of Music wishes you all "CHEERS!" this New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.
Some interesting things that go on January 1ST of each New Year.

In England and Scotland an extra round of football fixtures is played (unless New Year's Day falls on a Friday or Sunday.)

In Pasadena, California, United States, the Tournament of Roses is held, with revelers viewing the parade from the streets and watching on television, followed by the Rose Bowl football game.

Vienna New Year Concert, in Austria.

Polar Bear Clubs: in many northern hemisphere cities near bodies of water, they will have a tradition of people plunging into the cold water on New Year's Day. The Coney Island Polar Bears Club in New York is the oldest cold-water swimming club in the United States. They have had groups of people enter the chilly surf since 1903.

In Philadelphia, the Mummers Parade is held on Broad Street.

Hindu New Year, which falls at the time and date Sun enters Mesha. Hindus celebrate the new year by paying respects to their parents and elders and seek their blessings. They also exchange tokens of Good Wishes (Kai Vishesham).

The New Year's Day Parade is held in London. Performers include acts from each of the city's 32 boroughs, as well as entertainment from around the world.

I think I'll stay out of the cool water and feel blessed to see another year!

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC WITH THE NEXT TED WILLIAMS!"

Miss G with Little House of Music---It doesn't get much cuter than this!
Meet the next Ted Williams. All you need is a bat, a ball, of course batting gloves and a batters hat and you are really good at baseball!
This is a picture of my grandson Braden with one of his Christmas presents on! Braden who is six is a lefty and a switch hitter. I just wonder what team he will be on when he makes the pros!
You look precious Braden. Now get on a team and practice. It's the greatest thing next to music to be apart of a team.
Good luck with your baseball Braden. Next time I'm at your home we'll play again!
I Love You,
Grammy AKA Miss G Little House of Music

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC---SWIMMING ON CHRISTMAS DAY!"

Miss G with Little House of Music-----Are you believing this? Swimming on Christmas Day! Just an added feature when you live in beautiful Florida!
Actually the water was a little to cold for the grown ups, I wonder why it wasn't too cold for the kids?
After an hour of swimming Braden and Natalie decided to get into the spa. After that the water in the pool was much too cool for them also!
The kids had a great time!

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC" AND OUR STUDENT OF THE WEEK: "MR. KAI"

Miss G with Little House of Music presents our Student of the Week, Mr. Kai for the week of November 28, 2008.

Kai is a delight to teach. I've never seen him frown, he smiles all the time and we laugh a lot at lessons. Mr. Kai who is seven hasn't even taken lessons for three months and is passing songs left and right. I believe that is because his favorite subject in school is "Math!"

Kai already knows he is going to be an engineer when he grows up! I sure hope he'll be a "Music Engineer!"

Kai likes basketball and will soon be playing baseball. His favorite food is a ham sandwich from Subway! YOU GO KAI!

He also like the Jonas Bros, the color turquoise and has a puppy named Scruffy!

It is so wonderful to see happy children and Kai is one of them.

Keep up the good work Kai and anything in life you desire will come true.

I send hugs and lots of love to you Kai. Miss G is very PROUD of you!

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC---WONDERFUL ARTICLE"

Miss G with Little House of Music read this wonderful article in the Sunday paper.

"GIFT OF TIME AT TOP OF GRANDPA'S WISH LIST!"
Here's a note for kids and grandkids as Christmas approaches:
It's that time again to try to find a present for grandpa, and I know you want a wish list, so here goes.
First, please nothing that has to be dusted or cared for. My clothes may be going out of style, but I'm not wearing them out and probably don't really need any more.
If I can eat it or play with it, that's always good.
What I really want is sometimes the hardest to give. There is on thing that really does run out --- time! So let me put this at the top of my Christmas list.
When you think about my supply starting to run out, that you just give me more of yours!
Ron Howard

This is true for Grandmother's also. I'd love to have more time to enjoy my live with my family.

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC WITH MISS SYDNEY!"

Miss G with Little House of Music presents Miss Sydney! What a sweetheart she is. Sydney is last weeks "Student of the Week!" YOU GO SYDNEY!
Sydney could read music before she could read words! I do experiments with Sydney. I put music on the music rack that is much more difficult then what she is used to playing and this child just plays it like she has known the song her whole life!
Sydney has a special talent that we are going to pursue. After the first of the year I'm going to take her to a Dr.of Music at one of our local Universities and show her off to the music professor. Sydney's ability exceeds the gift of music. In all my years of teaching I have never seen a young child with the knowledge to read music like she does. Her brain must has a very special extra part and I'm going to find out what it is!
Sydney is a joy to teach and she just loves her music. How lucky I am to have the opportunity to be her music coach.
Keep playing the music Sydney, there is no limit to what you can achieve with your music.
I Love You and send a million hugs,
Miss G Little House of Music

SOME INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT DECEMBER.
Decembers Gemstone is Turquoise and Decembers Flower is Narcissus.
Christmas Plant it the Poinsettia and December 12 is Poinsettia Day.
December used to be the tenth month of the Roman year, and it gets it's name from the word 'decem', which means ten.
The Anglo-Saxons called it "Winter Monath", or "Yule Monath" because of the custom of burning the yule log around this time. after many Anglo-Saxons became Christians they called it "Heligh Monath" or holy month, because Christmas, the birth of Jesus, is celebrated in December.
In the northern hemisphere December marks the beginning of winter, and it is the time of rain, wind and snow.

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC---HAPPY 95TH BIRTHDAY CLAIRE"

Miss G with Little House of Music had a very exciting day on Tuesday, November 18, 2008. I took my friend Claire out of the nursing home to celebrate her "95TH" birthday. YOU GO CLAIRE! Claire has always told me she is going to live to be 100, I sure hope she is right.
First I took Claire to the salon to get her hair done, we did a little shopping and then went to her favorite restaurant for her birthday lunch. We had a good time. Claire was so excited to get a day out of the nursing home and I was excited to do it for her. Just think to live to be 95 and have no one in the whole world that you know, it is really sad for all of the elderly in all our nursing homes around the world. Most of them never get to leave.
Claire told me how lucky she was to have me and I told Claire how lucky I was to have her! She had a big time and a great 95TH birthday and I felt very good inside for taking her to celebrate. It was a win, win happy day for us both.
If you know anyone who lives in a nursing home it is a wonderful thing to go visit or better yet while they are able, take them out for the day.
Again, Happy Birthday Claire and we will go out and celebrate again soon for sure on your 96TH!

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC WITH MY MR. LOUIE AND MISS LISA"

Miss G with Little House of Music is proud to introduce Miss Lisa coaching my Mr. Louie.
Miss G's life has been a little unusual lately and Miss Lisa has been kind enough to take over my students until December 15TH. I don't know why she doesn't teach music all the time. Miss Lisa plays the piano beautifully and she has that kid personality that is so wonderful when you are coaching children. My students like her so much I'm afraid they will all want to follow her instead of waiting for me to return! I thank you so much Miss Lisa, you are a true friend.
My Mr. Louie in the picture is like my own son. I've taught him for 150 years now!!! He is a great pianist and so much fun to teach. He and I are great "Buddies!"
In the past two months I have had lemons and lemonade! I took care of my Aunt until she passed away with cancer, my husband has a medical problem and must go back into the hospital and I had hand surgery and am still working on cleaning out my Aunt's home in PA from FL. Now for the lemonade, my niece had her first baby boy Landen and my son and his wife had a beautiful baby girl Mahri Cate. All this in two months.
Thank you Miss Lisa, you can tell by her beautiful smile how much she loves teaching (coaching) children to play beautiful music. YOU GO LISA!
I love both of you,
Miss G Little House of Music
