There is nothing I’d rather do than attend the end of the year performances, the school fairs, the school outings, the school meetings.
This is the best shot I got of Young Knight’s school circus performance.
He’s the one with his back turned.
Otherwise there was this
and this
and then this.
Petit Prince was undeterred.
I think he had the most fun of all.
Young Lady volunteered to be responsible for him because she’s sweet on her little brother.
And because he had already ripped my arm out of my socket
and it was just dangling there uselessly.
A Petit Prince unleashed really increases my enjoyment of the evening, ya know?
Ah, Young Lady. Where are you going?
Oh, Petit Prince is following you over there to get a seat on the floor in front?
Good because I’ll really be able to keep an eye on him over there.
Everything else is forgotten when I see my child looking around with an anxious eager face to see if I’m there watching.
I’m here my baby. I’m here. I wouldn’t miss this for the world.
And you just have to remind yourself that moments like these only come once a year.
Until they come again the next morning.

The best pictures of today.
Thank you!!

I’m grinning. The Young Miss is such a young lady now. And your little prince…so sweet. These moments are the memories we’ll cherish, huh, even though when we’re in the middle of them, they can be a little stressful.
Oh, and how I can relate to those shots of the backs of people’s heads while at a school event!
Precious photos, Jennie.

Oh, so lovely.

Hilarious. I used to take my camera to these things and now (bad Mommy) I just don’t. I can only get random shots like these and it’s too frustrating. So I just watch and say I’ll remember it forever (knowing I probably won’t).
Then again, taking pictures creates the opportunity to write a funny post like this, right??

The “good” pictures are REALLY good…and the other pictures are really funny (I have taken so many frustrating back of people’s heads pictures in my life!).

Oh man, standing room only? That is rough when everyone wants pics! The photo of Petit Prince looking at the camera is hilarious. Thanks for the memories. 🙂

Aw, you know you’re raising ’em right when your daughter offers to look after the little one after he takes your arm out!=)
