Cass sings at the Music Festival.
He's a little leery of this and not sure he really wants to, but three months ago it sounded a lot more fun, you see, and so now he's signed up for not only the class presentation but a solo performance as well.
(A solo....that he's singing with two other boys. Not exactly sure how this works, but it'll be good. I'm sure.)
Tomorrow is the group performance. He picked out his clothes tonight, agonizing over individualism versus blending in (and the Hawaiian shirt won again, at least as of now)
and went to bed humming.
Tomorrow afternoon I'll go and cheer him on.
In a world where so many things are thrust upon us at once, sometimes it's just nice to stop
and hear the young'uns sing.

i hope it turns out to be as much fun as it sounded 3 months ago for him!
I like to think of you with an east Coast accent. Have you picked it up? Your kids? Your husband? Of course. I wish him luck with his singing. It might be one of those forever memories. I remember singing when I was 5 with a big cardboard cut-out flower around my head. I can still remember the hardwood floors under foot and the dust rising just a little bit as we shifted waiting for our time to go on.
Hope it all went well. Loved your picture post too and your 'doll story'.
I don't know too many boys that like and want to sing. This is cute!
Those recitals are always heart-in-throat moments for me. They may each be singing a part of the song alone, hence the 'solo'?
I'm currently in band concert mode with Littlest, it must be spring...
I'm cheering for him from way down here---can you hear me Cass??
Painting? I was just looking at these painted rooms:
