Andrew’s preschool class performed in a Christmas program with the rest of his school (preschool -- 8th Grade). We were fortunate enough to have Auntie Chris and Cousin Jacob around to help cheer on Andrew for his first public performance. Mom & Dad were probably more nervous than Andrew was.
Andrew has been our shy kid and we were unsure how he would do in front of a crowd. We worked with him to get him excited about the program and did a countdown to the Christmas program with him at home. He woke up very excited about going to his Christmas program. He had to sing 3 songs and since we didn’t know how the songs went, we weren’t sure if Andrew knew them (he wouldn’t give us a private performance or sneak peek to his songs).
When the preschoolers were called to the stage, Andrew made his way to the steps and was actually the first one on stage for his class. Holding his teacher’s hand, he marched to the middle of the stage. The moment of truth arrived and Andrew did very well. He knew the words to the song and preformed very well on stage. He was strictly business on stage which we got a chuckle out of. After his performance, he was very proud of his moments on stage and seemed to have enjoyed it.
We bought a new video camera for the event so that we could start posting videos on YouTube in HD. Enjoy the highlights of his performance.
