My dad has a baby grand-- he used to play for me when I was a colicky baby and it would calm me down, so I've loved pianos ever since. I don't know where I'd put the baby grand if he was handing it down! My inlaws have TWO pianos, so I always hoped we might get one of them, but strangely instead my sister-in-law got this one from a friend who was clearing out her dead parents' house, and since my sister-in-law is renting out her house, she passed THAT one on to me. Very round-about, but I'll take it!
