singing out loud. part 2.

so tonight continued our musical journey. towards christmas. the annual pre-school christmas program.

this year. little one was picked for a speaking part. i was nervous. everytime we practiced she forgot what she was going to say. everytime i asked her what she was going to say she would tell me, "mommy i don't know." or "i'm not going to say anything." i had bad visions dancing through my head. bad. bad. visions.

she trotted in. waved. jumped up and down. and sang her little heart out. she had fun with her friends. smiled and laughed. and then it was her turn. she walked right over to the microphone and said her line. with great intonation. every word. perfectly. i was so proud. and afterwards she said "i can't remember what i said, mommy." of course not. and then she twirled. because she's five and she can do that.
