"ANOTHER "STAR" IS BORN, MEET MISS SARA"

Just look at that face, that marvelous face of Miss Sara. Hi, this is Miss G with Little House of Music and I'd like to tell you about a charming little girl, Miss Sara.
I have never once seen Sara without her beautiful smile. She takes it everywhere with her because she is a happy child and a proud child which she should be.
Sara plays the piano beautifully and has now become a songwriter. She just recently played a song she is writing and it's breath taking for a child Sara's age 10 to have such feeling inside of her. Sara's song, "Is May Here" made it on our "Two Octaves of Kids" CD which made it on the Grammy ballot. Sara has played the piano at every event we have ever had here at Little House of Music and done a superb job. Of course I must give her parents a lot of credit for all of Sara's success, Sara's parents are wonderful parents and she is a very lucky girl!
When Sara isn't studying for school or playing the piano our Miss Sara loves to cook and just recently spent a week at the Young Chefs Academy Camp. Sara also listens to a lot of music and likes to make movies of she and her friends on the computer. How cool that is!
Sara took a Jazz dance class in school. Just think Sara may be a Jazz Pianist!
Our Sara would like to be a pastry chef when she grows up. I can just see her pastry show now, Sara making all kinds of goodies while the music she has written is playing in the background of her show! Of course she'll have Cd's to sell along with her recipes!
I never really expect too much from any of my students! We'll have to get busy with a name for her show!
I love you Sara, keep smiling and always remember how proud I am of you.

"MADISON AND MISS G WORKING ON THE SONG "I'M THE TEN!"

The song "I'm The Ten" is finished and it is great! We are all so excited. This is Miss G with Little House of Music and I'm so impressed with Hallie and Madison. These girls are great songwriters! I did help some but they did most of the lyrics. We would probably have the whole Broadway Show, "Lyric and Lore" done by now except we have so much fun! I keep saying, girls, girls, get over here to the piano!!!
Hallie had to leave early so the picture is of me and Madison after finishing the song. All three of us are very happy with the song until next week, then we'll think of something we did or shouldn't have done!
Can't wait for you all to hear it. For more information on "Lyric and Lore" call Miss G at Little House of Music: 888-GFEDCBA or 888-433-3222

"PARTY TIME, PARTY TIME, BANANA SPLIT TIME!"

This is Miss G with Little House of Music and did we ever have a party! Hallie, Madison and myself were supposed to work on our Broadway Show but that didn't last very long! We hit the pool and played or I should say tried to play volleyball in the pool and then we played cards with my husband Paul and then ate dinner. We had lemon pepper chicken, salad, french fries and fruit. Both Hallie and Madison were stuffed and couldn't eat another bit until I mentioned I got all the makings to make good old Banana Splits. Both of the girls ran to the kitchen. I think they did a wonderful job making their banana splits considering either one of them have ever worked at the Dairy Queen! Boy, were they ever good!

Remember, the girls need lots of energy to play the piano and write songs!

Enjoy the pictures!
