I had a REALLY bad day today! Sometimes Tim and I let outside sources effect our communication and we let things build up well today we blew! There was some major carnage! Its so stupid that we let life do it to us sometimes. We usually have such great communication and we rarely have fights but every once in awhile we do. When the smoke clears and we are able to patch up our wounds and sit down and talk it out we realize that what we were fighting about was secondary. Anyway so today was a rough day. I spent most of it crying. Tonight was the kids Holiday concert at school and because of my crappy mood/day I was REALLY not looking forward to it! When it comes to my anxiety issues it helps if I have a pretty even keel day where I can meditate and get myself in a calm place to be in a social setting. Obviously this was not looking good! I have to say that sometimes children REALLY put things into perspective for me in their own, innocent way!
I knew both kids would sing with their classes and that also Jake would perform with the band and he had a solo what I didnt know is that I have two of the freakin funniest kids in Greenbush!!!! First of all the band played and Jake did his solo perfectly and I teared up when he was thru. I was SO SO SO SO (infinity) proud of him!! Then it was time for the PreK-2nd grades to do their thing. Miss Izzy was front and center and looked adorable in her little red plaid jumper and maryjanes I wanted to eat her up! The teacher gets their attention and they are off I couldnt tell you what they sang because I was in fits of laughter at my dainty little daughter. My mom said "where is Izzy"? I said "she is the one in the front picking her nose"!! LOL The next thing I know she is pulling her dress up over her head and doing some dance moves I have never seen before! It was soooo funny Tim and I were just shaking our heads and laughing and then she saw us, waved, upped the volume, and gave us a thumbs up! We thought we had seen it all until next up came 3rd-5th grade, again I have no clue what the song was but it was a snappy one! They would sing a phrase and then the music had kazoos, bells, zippy noises at the end of each phrase and each time Jake would do some hilarious jesture like ping the ball on his santa hat, or make a peace sign by his mouth and then push his lips up into a smile it doesnt sound as funny as it was but mom, tim, annemarie, izaac and I were literally in tears! It was obvious that it wasnt part of the choriography but my God it was the funniest thing I saw all night! Of course we werent recording that but we think we know someone who may have been! I will post the videos asap!!
Needless to say when we got the kids to bed after telling them how amazing they were tonight and how proud we were of them Tim and I sat down to hash out our issues realizing how blessed we are and how we need to cherish every minute of every day that we have together! These kids may make us crazy from time to time but they also bring us so much joy and so much closer together everday!!!
