Spring Show

This week was Ethan's Spring Show at Shadowbrook. We were so excited because Daddy took the day off work to go and Mimi spent an extra long weekend with us so that she could attend, too! This was his 3rd show for the year, but the first one that was not in the church sanctuary. It was held in the Family Life Center and the children performed in a circle in the center while the parents "picnicked" on blankets in front of them. It was TERRIFIC! With Caden being so active these days, it was awesome to be able to bring toys and snacks to entertain him while he could move around on our blanket. He has learned how to make the sputtering sound and this pic was caught mid-sputter!

As expected, Ethan's performance was full of zest! I think that I have mentioned that everyone knows him by name at school because he is such a character and this show was no different! He danced and danced and in between yelled, "Hey Mommy, Hey Daddy, Hey Mimi, Look at me, I dancing!" then "Hey Caden, Look, I dancing!" followed by running out of the circle up to our blanket to show us his moves, then running back to his spot in the circle. It was hilarious and everyone was giggling! He was, by far, the most lively in his class and his little friend, Liberty, who stood beside him, every now and then leaned in and told him to "Shhhh." Priceless!!!

This quick 30 second video was taken toward the end of the program and he was actually doing exactly what he was supposed to do(minus singing the parts of the song that were of no interest to him except for the sounds) without running out of the circle and yelling at Mommy, Daddy, Caden, and Mimi! His poor little classmates don't know what to think.
