A couple of night before my birthday, my father-in-law knocked at our door about 9:00 at night. I was a little shocked although he passes through on occasion to go to Idaho Falls, so I just figured Jason had forgotten to tell me. He said he had brought some things from his parents home that their cleaning out for us to store for him. We've had some of his things before so I didn't think it was that strange. So we headed out to unload the truck and this was in the back....
a piano...for me...for my birthday!!!
I was so surprised. I had told both parents that I was saving money for a piano but I never expected to have one at home this soon. I love it!! This little piano was left in a rental apartment that Jason's dad's family owns in Idaho Falls. Apparently, this little piano had taken some abuse, but Jason's dad took it to a piano technician who cleaned it up and got it already to be played. It has really good sound and suffered no permanent damage. It has been so fun to have a piano in our home. I have been teaching piano to a few kids (mostly family) and since I started teaching I have really been missing playing the piano myself. It's been a long time since I've had a piano to play and I think I missed it more than I even thought! Plus, the girls have been loving playing it. They hold sessions of Primary often in our front room now! Thanks Mom and Dad Polson for the special surprise!
