How was that?

Sometimes my students just leave me speechless.
Today Kamila saw the picture of a bunny in her piano book, and told me she had a bunny, and the bunny's name was Beethoven.
I asked her if she knew who Beethoven was, and she said, "He was the very best player of the piano." I was pretty impressed that a second grader knew who Beethoven was, but I don't guess I should have been surprised because her dad's a pianist himself. Anyway, I asked her if she'd ever heard any of the music Beethoven wrote, and she said "No, but he is friends with my Daddy!"
