Piano man is what we call Abraham. He was adopted at the age of 2 yrs from Mexico. He is blind and has some brain damage from a severe beating he suffered while in his orphanage. He loves music and can play any instrument. He can tune instruments and has perfect pitch. His music gift has been evident since he was home a short time. We brought him home Dec. 9, 1985 and, Paul and I went out for our anniversary on Dec. 19... when we came home he was still up in his crib singing all of the new Christmas songs he had heard the past 9 days in perfect english and song :) He has won several compositions as a yg. child and was given the award for a high schooler at the age of a 4th grader. He has taken keyboarding lessons at universities and he plays for weddings, receptions and other social gatherings. Unfortunately most of us are not very gifted with music but we sure do enjoy Abraham's gift.
Even little Andrew does. He will often find Abraham as he is playing and together they will make their own "music"....brothers forever and maybe another "piano man".
