An expert in teaching creative children and helping parents understand their creative child, Catherine coaches parents, and works with students of all ages, teaching music and the piano, along with several other instruments. Creative people see the world and every aspect of the world differently from other people. As children we don't know we are doing that. Unfortunately parents think that their child is just being difficult. It wasn't until Catherine was in her 40s that she realized she WAS creative and that that was why she never really 'fit' in with what everyone else was saying or thinking or feeling. Since then she has been taking her experiences and helping others to understand what they are going through.

Happy Valentine's Day!

1. True or False. Valentine's Day is associated with the mutual exchange of love notes.

2. True or False. Valentine's Day is the third largest card-sending holiday of the year.

Interesting Fact:
Using the language of the law courts for rituals of courtly love, a "High Court of Love" was established in Paris on Valentaine's Day in 1400. The court dealt with love contracts, betrayals, and violence against women. Judges were selected by women on the basis of a poetry reading. -- Wikipedia, the free encycolpedia, "Valentine's Day".

Today write a poem about love and put it to music. If you would like to share it send it to me. I'll put some of the songs on this blog. Send to: Catherines.Music.Notes@gmail.com
