Christmas Program

Last year at Caleigh's Christmas program at her school, Chad and I first became acutely aware of the way preschoolers (lots of them) "sing".  It is more like taking your child's worst tantrum and multiplying it by around 300 and you have a preschool program!  Ok, well maybe it's not that bad but it was good for a great laugh.  This year, we knew what to expect and weren't so blown away by the "singing".  AND, this year, we were informed Caleigh would be singing a solo!  YAY!  She practiced really hard and learned all of her lines like a champ.  She was so excited to perform for us!  As the teachers asked the students to sing louder and louder, Caleigh was only too happy to oblige.  She danced and smiled and then became very serious when it to was time to watch for her cue.  Unfortunately, she was instructed to start at the wrong time and she became confused.  She kept on singing though and made her way through her lyrics with the microphone held as close to her mouth as possible.  She could not have been more proud of herself!   And we were so very proud of her!







After her program was her class Christmas party.  There was food and drinks and gifts!  There were gifts to the kids from the teachers, gifts to the teachers from the kids, and there were gifts to the parents from the kids! Here are the presents from Caleigh to us.  We also got a few handmade ornaments as well!

Granny and Granddaddy made it to her program this year and were able to partake in her class party as well!  She was so happy to have them there!  When she saw them standing in the back, she could barely control her excitement on stage!
