Before April come to a close, let me share our daughter's performance during the Thursday Music Club's 66th Young Musician Honors Recital on April the 13th at Vance Memorial Presbyterian Church in Wheeling West Virginia.
We always admire this church whenever we would pass by it last year when our kids would play tennis match and we never imagined that we would one day get to see the interior part of it. This church was the venue of the recital set by the Thursday Music Club, the group that held the audition at West Liberty University where our daughter performed two songs and got a superior rating.
All the students that received superior and superior with honors were invited to a recital. This was our daughter's second time auditioning and getting invited but it's her first attendance to the recital. Last year's recital was postponed due to there were not many students who got the superior rating.

Rylie was very anxious coming to this recital. She told me a couple of times while waiting for her turn to play that she couldn't remember the notes. I calmed her down by telling her that she will be fine. She was so nervous that she was sweating bullets and her palms were cold as ice. We prayed for her and she did really well and didn't mess up. She was relieved!
They served refreshments and cookies after r= the recital but we didn't wait since we still have to go back to Weirton. Below is the video I took of her performance of Seafoam, one of the songs that she performed in West Liberty University during the audition. Enjoy.
Love.
