Roo's preschool Christmas pageant was this past week. We've been working with him to let him know that it's ok to sing and participate and not to worry about all of the people there. He had his line memorized and he let us each know that he wanted us to be there. We decided to get there a little early so we could have front row seats; we thought that having us nearby may help him feel a little less scared.
The kids all filed into the chapel and were ringing bells. They each took their seat and the program began. Roo did a lot better this time in terms of getting up and down and singing a little bit. When it was his turn to speak into the microphone though, he got really nervous and ended up not saying anything, but that was ok, we were still really proud of him.
After the show we told Roo how proud we were of him and we went with him, the other kids and parents and enjoyed some cake. We thanked his teachers for the time they spend teaching him and making his first school experience so wonderful!

I remember being terrified of speaking in the elementary school play and that was like 4th or 5th grade. Great job, Roo!
