Talent Show
So my Gracie....my painfully shy Gracie...decided she was going to follow through this year with her plans to perform in the Talent Show at school.
She has wanted to do it every year, and then the reality that she has to stand on stage in front of a lot of people kicks in and she quickly changes her mind before I can sign the permission slip.
But, not this year.
She wanted to sing "Let It Go," and after a try-out, 2 practices & a dress rehearsal she did just that.
I did her hair and made her and Julia Frozen inspired dresses for the show---but she conquered her fears and performed in front of over 100 preschool thru 2nd grade kids and teachers, and a few of us parents lucky enough to come this morning 8:45 for the special Talent Show assembly.
She and Julia were 4th from the last act, and they were the third Frozen song to be performed, so there was a collective groan among the kids sitting (less patiently than an hour before) on the cafeteria floor.
I wasn't happy about the groan, and she didn't even notice. She and Julia took the stage and snag their song loud and proud and the kids sang along and cheered when they were finished.
She will perform again tonight for the PTA parents, and again tomorrow for an assembly for the 3rd-5th grade classes and teachers.
