This year my sweet Brookey-Brooke fell apart when her mom didn't show up for her Halloween parade. I've been reminded of that a million times since that day. It's usually when I'm in the bathroom doing her hair, she reminds me. It crushes me each time she brings it up. I had a lot on my plate that day and it just wasn't physically possible to get there and see her parade. Today, was her Christmas singing performance at Challenger. She LOVES to sing. She sings ALL day long and the same little songs over and over. Sometimes I have to tell her to stop so that the song won't get stuck in my head. It happens often that in the middle of the night, I find myself singing, "Every day is a happier day, when we're learning the Challenger way..." over and over going slightly insane UGGGghhh... So there was no way I'd miss this performance, even though I was nervous crowding into Room 7 with my little guy and Jett in tow, I did it. Radd was fabulous and fell asleep in my arms half way through. Jett was my assistant and took some video of her singing for me. It was great! Just before leaving, I wanted a picture.
Then when we got home she handed me the lovely present she made for me at school. I LOVE IT!
