sing with me….
“which one of these is not like the other?”
oh my sweet sean…
he does not enjoy being in front of crowd of any kind.
he told his teacher we had a party that we had to go to
so we wouldn’t be at his program.
she didn’t buy it (but a good try on sean’s part)
i knew he’d be nervous.
and he was.
as soon as he found me in the crowd, he calmed down and did fine.
i was mouthing “turn around!!” and giving him the evil eye…
until he did it and i gave him a BIG smile and a thumbs up sign.
the highlight of the program was when his teacher came on stage
playing the part of “little bunny foo-foo”
the kids were all giggly during the song.
then just as the good fairy said “now i will turn you into a goon”…
the kid in the front row in the black with the red tie points and shouts
in pure donald trump fashion…
“YOU”RE FIRED!”
it was not part of the program
but it sure cracked me up and everyone else.
he was quite pleased with the crowd’s reaction.
and to think i almost accidentally-on-purpose skipped this program.
i would’ve missed out on so much.
emily loria - I forgot about the little bunny foo foo song, that is one I need to teach to my boys for easter! 😉
traci - your poor son. at least he calmed down and had fun with it. how scary for him. there is always one comedian in the group huh? glad you had a good time.
cynthia - that would have been me too…with the evil eye thing!
there is usually SOMETHING funny that a student must do to get a laugh whether they realize it or not but of course the teachers just don’t see it that way !
amy - funny… we teachers didn’t find the “YOU’RE FIRED” part that amusing. 🙂 Glad you folks in the audience got a laugh out of it, though. I guess we were trying to entertain you, after all.
Juliann Brenner - Hi Megan – I just started reading blogs (Erica sent me her link and I found yours on hers…what a world of tech. – I am so not tech. savvy; Annie puts me to shame with her 62-self-portraits). I miss you and think of you often. I have enjoyed catching up with you on your blog and you look beautiful in green 🙂
chris - I feel for him,my youngest is getting better now with that, but boy she would hate to be focused on. Your kids are so cute.
traci - I feel so sorry for scott or any child who is that scared to be in front of a crowd HOWEVER it is really NEAT that once he saw you he got over his nerves!!!
I LOVE simple, fun, cute programs like this.
