There are always things that surprise me as a mom. I think I know
every little thing about my kids. I know what they like to eat, how they
like to sleep, how to approach them when they're upset.
I know how to wake each of them up the way that suits them, I know
not to push when they get too embarrassed.
It always is a pleasant surprise when they show me something new.
Charlie, he's a performer. He loves to be on stage and that
was pretty obvious, from the past few years of school plays and shows
that he's been in. This year was no different. He made us laugh.
His little freckled face and that PROUD smile was contagious.
My favorite part of his performance was an interpretive "Ka"
dance where he had to pick up Julianne ballet style and then she did the
same to him. This is hilarious to me considering Julie is almost double his height.
The bowtie? Well, that was just icing on an already cute cake...
It's Kate that surprised me. She let her shy smile beam.
I couldn't show her that I was directly watching her because
she gives me a bit of attitude when she sees that. She is the kid
that gets embarrassed if I wave to enthusiastically at these events.
Gotta play it cool.
So proud of my little piano player.
Sometimes, being a mom is really fun.
