Last night was Ella's first Christmas program. They had probably 100 3-4 year olds. But they split them up with 3 year olds going first and then the 4 year olds. Then they all came back together to sing one final song. She was one of the few kids in the program that had lines to say. We worked on her line over and over, just hoping that she would not forget it or freeze in front of all these people. She did a great job and said her line very loudly into the microphone and very clearly. I was such a proud momma. After she got done she smiled and waved at me. I could tell she was very proud of herself. Then of course she sang the songs really well. After the program was over there was a cookie reception to reward the many kids for making it through the program. It was so great to see my little girl up there singing. Our little girl is definitely growing up.
