Maddie's preschool had a Christmas program for the parents. All the kids wore holiday t-shirts they had made and "sang" five or six Christmas songs they'd been practicing for a few weeks.
At first Maddie did pretty well, singlign a little bit and smiling at me (she spotted me up-front taking pictures). But she quickly decided she didn't want to be on the stage any more and wanted to come sit with me. I tried to get her to re-join her friends by returning to my seat, but that just caused her to cry. Oh, well. We'll see how she does next year. :-)
It was really funny to see the kids facing in all directions, some crying, singing, yelling and calling out for their parents. Good stuff.
Eric and I really enjoy times like these.
