On more proud parent moment was added to the very long list on Thursday morning. Jake's kindergarten class had their Thanksgiving play. A couple weeks prior Jake came home with a note from his teacher saying she had selected Jake to be the narrator of the play and could we please practice with him. We were very proud of him for being such an excellent reader. Inside I was thinking lots of pressure! This play was 5 pages long and he had most of the words! Turkeys just had to say "gobble, gobble, gobble!"
Of course, we practiced at home and they practiced at school. And on the day of the play he was awesome! He read every word and didn't stumble over words or get flustered...as I would have! It was lots of fun to watch all the kids do their part. Jake's best bud, JP, was a pilgrim. He was so cute saying "Land Ho!"
After the play they served refreshments. The teacher made sure they knew to serve their parents first. Jake picked up a donut and asked if I wanted it. Then we went off to the school book fair so he could pick out some books for us to read. Great day with Jake!
