I have missed you all very much during this time of staying home. I planted a small garden with celery, cilantro, green onions and a several types of flowers. My rose bush was full of beautiful roses, but some hungry javelinas came by and ate many branches off the bush! I learned a new lesson about raising up my plants that might be yummy treats for hungry critters. I hope you are all well and I look forward to seeing your wonderful, bright faces in the new school year. - Hasta luego, Señora Goodwin https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58dd32eea5790a44f4114eea/1590347536517-XBNMIDP0HZ4POPEE58NX/Mimi+Papp+Music+Teacher+400.jpg Year End 2019-20 Specialty Class Album - Music To our Desert Star Family, Thank you for continuing to practice and improve on violin during this semester.
