"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC----JUST LOOK AT PROUD MOM!"

Miss G with Little House of Music was honored to be involved in the purchase of Sydney and Maddie's new piano. I went along with their parents to check out the piano for the girls. They have been playing on a electric keyboard but they have progressed so fast they now need a real live piano.
Pictured is the proud Mom, Miss Jo Jo in front of the girls very first real live piano.
I'm so happy for them all. There is no better sound than to be walking in your home and hearing one of your children playing the piano.
Their new piano will bring hours and hours of joy to their home.
YOU GO MOM AND DAD! Jo Jo and her husband Bob are wonderful parents and all four of their children are very special to me.
Hugs to all and enjoy that new piano!

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC---THE GREAT PUMPKIN!"

Happy Halloween from Miss G at Little House of Music.

"THE GREAT PUMPKIN"
Pumpkin's are a fruit. A pumpkin is a type of squash and is a member of the gourd family.
The largest pumpkin pie ever baked was in 2003 and weighed 418 pounds.
Pumpkins have been grown in North America for five thousand years. They are indigenous to the western hemisphere.
In 1584, after French explorer Jacques Cartier explored the St. Lawrence region of North America he reported finding "gros melons." The name was translated into English as "Pompions," which has since evolved into modern day "Pumpkin!"

Have a "Safe" and "Happy Halloween" or the "Great Pumpkin Day!"

MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC---PLEASE READ!"

Please read Miss G's from Little House of Music's "NO REGULATIONS ON PRIVATE MUSIC TEACHERS! PLEASE!

NO REGULATIONS FOR PRIVATE MUSIC TEACHER’S:

I find it appalling that anyone who wishes to teach private music lessons to children is allowed to do so without first being fingerprinted, a background check done on them and have a state license that requires a test to see if they are even qualified to teach a musical instrument to our children.
There are millions of private music teachers in the USA without any restraints. Everyday there are millions of children in the USA being taught privately by a teacher who has had no checks done on them.I have done a survey asking parents if their child's private music teacher has a state license to teach music and if they know the teacher has been fingerprinted and a background check done on them. All the parents just assume that teacher's have all of the above checks done before they can teach children music in their homes or in a little room in a music store without a window to view their child's lesson. They tell me that every state requires all these checks to be done before anyone can teach and work with children. When I tell them this isn't the fact I wish you could see their faces and hear what they have to say!I find it unbelievable that this issue has been overlooked in the USA. I have written letters to my state officials hoping that in the 2008 Legislative Session this problem will be solved in my state but what about the other states?
The list is very long of adults working with children that must be fingerprinted and have a background check done on them, Girl Scout leaders, parents helping their child’s teacher in schools, after school sport coaches just to name a few. Why not private music teachers?
I personally know of cases where the music teacher has assaulted children. I hope that we don’t allow this to happen to another child!As adults, it is our responsibility to take care of our children instead of assuming that all the above checks are done on private music teachers.
We must take better care of our children and help parents stop wasting their money on a music teacher who is not qualified to teach.
As a private music teacher myself I have first hand knowledge of way too many cases of children being taught by a private music teacher who is not qualified to teach. I certainly hope there are no pedophiles that play music and decide to start teaching our children private music lessons!
I would appreciate any help you could give me concerning this issue.

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC---HAND SURGERY HAS IT'S BENEFITS!"

Miss G with Little House of Music couldn't ask for a better cousin and a better sister.
Susan "Lee" my cousin is loading the car for me to go to the airport because I had hand surgery! My almost sister Jeanne is taking out the trash for me because of my hand! I felt like a queen!
While in York, PA I also spent time with Susan and Jeanne. Just how lucky can one person be? All these people to love and all these people who love me. We certainly do laugh a lot and certainly don't act at all like grown ups! I keep saying that when I grow up I'm going to be a piano coach!
Thank you Susan and Jeanne for helping out your old buddy!
I'll be seeing you both very soon. Next trip to York we are having a sleeping party like the good old days. I don't want to grow up!
A million hugs and thanks to you two for helping me get dressed and everything else.

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC---STILL FRIENDS AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!"

Miss G at Little House of Music with her friends for life! I count by blessings everyday that I have so many friends. The girls in the picture are life long friends of mine and I love every one of them with all of my heart. A friend is someone that you haven't talked to in awhile and call them or see them and it was just like yesterday when you last spoke or seen each other.
We just recently had a get together in our hometown, York, PA. Personally I think we all look like we are still in high school!
KARIN, PLEASE OPEN YOUR EYES! I have to put another picture up there because your eyes are closed. By the way, who is that handsome man with you in the picture?
Pictured left to right: Lynne, Karin with her eyes closed, Suzanne, me, Miss G, Melinda and Bonnie. What a beautiful bunch of ladies!
Of course I'm the only pianist and I'm the only one which just had surgery on my hand! You can't miss me.
We are all planning on a get together real soon again. I think we all realize that we don't see each other enough, don't talk enough and laugh enough.
Seeing and hugging my friends was just what the Doctor ordered for me. I'm like a new person since we all got together.
Friends, I love each and every one of you and feel honored that you all feel the same way about me.
I send a million hugs to you all.
Later Gators,

"MISS G WITH LITTLE HOUSE OF MUSIC PRESENTS MR. MICHAEL OUR STUDENT OF THE WEEK"

Miss G with Little House of Music presents our own "Mr. Michael" our "Student of the Week!" YOU GO MICHAEL!
I am so very proud of Michael. He is in level three theory and is playing beautiful songs that are at the advanced level of playing and he has only studied music for a year!
The only way I can explain Michael is that he has the "Music Mind!" He does play these difficult songs a lot but his mind was made for music. In no time he has these difficult songs memorized. I keep telling him someday he'll get a scholarship to study music at a University.
Michael loves music and Michael lives music.
I enjoy teaching Michael so much because he wants to learn so much! I just wish he would have started lessons with me when he was five years old.
I can't say it enough, I'm very proud of you Michael. Keep up the great love you have for music and you will never be bored. Music will or maybe already is your best friend!
I Love You,
Miss G Little House of Music
