On Tuesday we headed over to the preschool to hear Olivia and Kai sing with all the other kids from their school. Olivia has been practicing and waiting for the preschool party for at least two weeks. During her mini practices at home we had many conversations like this:
"Mom, what is the next song?"
"Olive, I don't know, how does it start?"
"You know mom, just sing it!"
"I really don't know, how does it start?"
"MOM!"
I would then start singing random Christmas songs trying to figure out what one she was talking about.
"No mom that isn't it. You know it goes like." Then she would just look at me.
So, after our not so successful practice sessions I was worried she would only know the words to one song. To my surprise her and Kai both stood front and center and sang their hearts out. I could hear their voices over all the other kids and both of them knew ALL the words. I couldn't believe it! Olivia often gets shy and awkward when tons of people are watching her, and Kai what can I say he is two!
For someone who doesn't love singing and musicals I think I have at least two kids on my hand that have a real LOVE for it!

Kids are amazing how they will pick up on songs they actually like!!! Did Brian ever say anything about Olivia's dress...I think she is darling anyway, even if her dress was a little short!!
Thank goodness for everyone Brian didn't see it! He would have killed me! When you only have one dress that could pass as a holiday dress you have to just work with it!
