She's a Star!

Oh my goodness! The spring performance was the best thing I have ever seen. Amberly (Eliza's teacher) did a photo montage with pics that she had taken of the kids throughout the year. I was in tears. It was so, so cute. The parents were seated and when the kids came in to the theater I saw Eliza looking for me. I didn't know if I should wave or hide. I was sure she was going to want to come sit with me, but I waved to her and she exclaimed "There's my MOM! Where's Heidi?". Heidi then had to show herself. She then announced to the audience, "There's Heidi!". Little did she know, Lisa W. was there too! My dear, darling girl knew all of the words and actions to the songs. Have I mentioned that it was so, so cute? Then in the middle of it all she stood up and put her dress over her head. It was a proud parenting moment. I was laughing so hard I thought I was going to snort. Luckily I put a little white diaper cover over her undies just in case such a thing might happen. After the theatrical performance, we went to Noodles and Co. for some Mac 'n cheese. It was such a fun night!

I think this was the moment she spotted me.

A very happy girl staying up too late!

How fun!!!! Great job, Eliza!

I'm hoping Mali's (new) school will have performances - her current school doesn't do anything of that sort.

What could be cuter than that? You are a smart Mommy, Tiff---I don't think I would have thought of the bloomers!

Ha ha ha, so cute! I love those moments where you feel so proud you feel like you're going to burst! It's strange to see your child participate in something YOU didn't teach them or organize with them like this. It's like an extension of who they are and you see them in a different light. What a big girl!
