Haiku Friday

Her Highness got a
Solo in the Second Grade
Program! She is thrilled!

The second grade musical is on October 25th and Her Highness has been anxiously awaiting the news about who was given the solos. I cautioned her that there were many more children than parts and that the important thing was that she tried her hardest and volunteered to sing one. Secretly, though, I was telling her that there are lots of teacher's kids in the second grade and that they would most likely get the parts and that I was sorry.

Guess what, though? Mommy, ever the pessimist, was wrong this time! This is one of the few times it feels good, even great, to be wrong. On top of that, she was invited to be in the Blue Ribbon Choir. What is that, you ask? It is a group of second and third graders who wear $6 t-shirts and have a fall and spring choir concert. Her Highness, though, is on top of the world and is going to be on American Idol in ten years you know. Look out, Simon....
