For many, many Wednesday nights now, Parker and Bailey have been rehearsing for their church choir musical, The Rock Slinger and his Greatest Hit. (the story of David and Goliath, get it? huh?) I have to admit, I never quite know what to expect from Parker or Bailey when they hit the stage. The Christmas program last year was certainly memorable. And for months now, all Parker can talk about is wanting to be a Michael Jackson performer. He is convinced that my brother’s upcoming wedding will be the perfect opportunity for him to make his debut MJ performance. I fully expected there to be one moonwalking sentry soldier up on stage last night, but P kept his entire performance rather mellow. Bailey, meanwhile, is completely fickle about her desire to entertain. When she wants your attention, by golly, you’ll know it. At other times, however, she will play shy-kid to the extreme. But no matter what, I’m afraid that Bailey just being Bailey is going to be entertaining, whether she likes it or not.
The little lamb trio (Bailey in the middle) opened the show last night with two sweet songs. Throughout rehearsals, they have sounded perfectly angelic. However, this was the first time a microphone was thrown into the mix…
(please excuse the jiggly videos. I’m a full-body giggler, even though, clearly, “it’s not funny!”)
I was incredibly proud of both of my unique and awesome kids. Thanks for always keeping me on the edge of my seat, P and B.
Dearest Bailey you just cannot comprehend how funny it clearly was. Thanks for the tears of laughter
