Ali's school has an annual Christmas concert and each class performs a few Christmas songs. Last year, Ali was so scared that she did not do anything. Just stood there (and we paid how much for those tickets again, honey?). Yup, and the buffet wasn't even that great. Anyhow, this year, we thought Ali might be able to do a bit better. I mean, she is so loud and super animated at home. We had high hopes.
N: "What's this place? Why is there so much noise, mommy?"
Ali's class getting ready before their turn. Our little one is always super clingy to her "Teacher Brenda".
Her JK1 class getting ready to hit the stage:
As soon as Ali saw me, she made a bee line for mommy. She even threw away all the props (jingle bells gloves and pom-poms). I had to bring her back and then she started crying. Terrific. She kept wanting me to stay with her so I had to quickly ninja my way out and hid in the crowd. The whole time the music was playing, she was looking for me, but finally given up after awhile. Instead of dancing and singing, she stood there like a statue...again!!! Just like last year. To make feel a bit better, practically her whole class was like that. Well, I guess my girl is normal!
A few of her friends from JK1.
Our PAC was able to raise some money to hire an entertainer for this year's concert. Scruffles the clown was very popular with the kids. They loved the balloons that he made - so cool!
Daddy and his little girl.
At first Ali refused to go near Santa, but after I told her she can ask Santa for a gift, she quickly changed her mind. It was at this concert that she told Santa she wanted a bag like mommy's.

On our way to the parking lot, Ali wanted to take a picture with the gigantic xmas tree in the lobby.
This is the "magic wand" that the clown made. Cool, huh?
All in all, it was a great winter concert. It was nice to see her class all dressed up and had a chance to meet the other parents from her class as well. Hopefully, she will be able to perform a bit better next year!
