Violin Concert 2009

This is the day that I've made Rachel worked hard for. It is the day of her violin concert held at YMS Auditorium. It is an annual event organized by her teacher, Ms Kon, for her classes of students.

Rachel is going up the stage to play a piece of music all by herself. Seeing her walked up the stage, I held my breath and could hear my own heartbeat. I was even more anxious than the performer.

Watching Rachel on stage and seeing how well composed she was to finish her performance, it almost brought tears to my eyes. I am so proud of my little girl. She had not only played solo, she had played it well too (much better than all the practice sessions I had with her).

I learnt a lesson today. Have faith in your children and they will do well.

At the end of the concert, every student received a reward from Ms Kon for the excellent performance they put up : a fresh water lobster to bring home as pet.
