Picture Perfect Thursday XII – Come and see the show
Last year at this time I was mad as heck. Why? Because I was unable to attend LatteGirl’s School Christmas pageant. Why? Because it was held at 10 o’clock in the morning!
When I arrived home from work, TheWife and LatteGirl were getting ready to leave, and quite dejected she said to me, “We are leaving to go to my Christmas pageant.”
I told her that I knew that, and that I was going too. Her face lit up. She started cheering and jumping up and down. She was as thrilled that I was attending as I was.
I know it may be more convenient for the schools to hold these events during the day. But I think both the parent and the child miss out this way. OK, last year I thought that was the case. Now, after having missed a year, and knowing how thrilled I was to be able to see her this year. I KNOW this is the case.
I can’t get last year back. But I know damn well, I am not going to ever miss another one.

I’m glad you didn’t have to miss it!
Mike had to miss Kasia’s school show last night, but they have an in-school one on Tuesday that he’ll be able to go to that one. (He works nights, so it works out for him this time).
Is her dress a school uniform? We got the same dress for Kasia when she was smaller. (It was second hand though, so who knew it was a uniform?) I love that color on LatteGirl!
