I think I mentioned a week ago about Garrett's school program. On a Sunday night, the kids who attend our church's Mother's Day Out and Daycare joined forces and performed several songs for all the parents. I took a video of one of the songs from Garrett's class, but Blogger takes forever and a day to upload, so that will have to come at another time. But here's a pictorial overview of the night.
"Where are my parents? I want to be sure they're watching my every move. They're gonna love this! There they are."

"Smile pretty and get ready to sing!"

"Aha! The microphone! I know the singers in the worship team on Sunday morning sing into these, so I should give it a shot."
"Hmm, a little closer. I don't think the people in the back row can hear me."
"And, now I'm done. I don't know this song, so I'll just look away from the audience and then they probably won't be able to see me."

After all the groups had finished their songs, our pastor came on the stage to thank everyone and had the kids sit up there for a minute. During that time, Garrett and his friend, Avery (the girl in the purple shirt standing next to him in most of the pictures), sat directly in front of a speaker that sits on the edge of the stage. They both started talking into it and then running their fingers up and down the metal grating on the front until one of the adults up there told them to stop. I have a feeling that Garrett and Avery will be getting into trouble together for many years to come. They've known each other since birth and have always been in the same Sunday school class along with being in the same MDO class. (And we're friends with her parents and swap babysitting back and forth.) It will be fun to show them these pictures when they're older and have forgotten how long they've known each other. There's just something to be said for friends you've known since birth. That's the way I feel about my friend, Mary.
This Sunday, Garrett will be performing again with his VBS class. That should be interesting.

Hilarious, Lydia! He's such a cutie and full of personality, with a lot of mischief, I must add!
