The Busy Season Has Begun!

We have just finished the first week in December and already we are busy.  We started out the month with J's Christmas Choir Program.  This is usually a program only for 5th graders, but there never seems to be enough that want to participate, so they open it up to 4th graders and sometimes even 3rd graders.  They have to practice after school 2 days a week during the whole first semester.  The performance was actually held earlier than normal, but I was happy for that--the month is only going to get crazier.

Anyway, it is always fun to hear the kids sing.  They do everyday songs and of course, they end with a bunch of Christmas songs wearing santa hats.  It's tradition!  She did very well and she was so excited that she actually had a speaking part this time.  She never seems to get any of those, so she was thrilled that she was chosen this time. 

Since it was Mutual night, my hubby was with the big kids there, so only K and I were able to see her perform.  She was bummed that Daddy couldn't be there, but thank goodness he was able to see her sing some of her songs at the craft fair a few weeks earlier.  I am glad that all my kids so far have participated in this when they were in 5th grade and I know that K will want to as well.
