Hello Kathy:

     Good job Addie! As for learning the piano, you might want to talk with 
Linda Mentink in the Blind Musicians group or Bill McCan at Dancing Dots. 
Not sure how early a child can learn braille music. Dancing Dots
http://www.dancingdots.com

Has materials on learning braille music. You can check with music stores and 
look for adds in newspapers for piano teachers. Start calling and asking 
questions. My Mother taught piano and had a studio of forty students. She 
didn't often take students below the age of six, but she did take a three 
year old who was big enough to reach the keys. Addie could end up learning 
music by ear and by reading braille music. Because of this, it is important 
to keep your piano tuned. Hope all this helps.

Regards,

Robert Jaquiss
