Adventures of a Maude in Training

This morning S.'s class is performing a dance in the school talent show. He is sooooo excited about it. By his and his teacher's accounts he has been actually dancing when they practice which is a big step for him. He hasn't shown it to me, telling me it is a "surprise". There will be a second performance this afternoon for the parents, so I will see it then. The only thing he has divulged is, "telephone hands are hard to do fast." He was sure to tell me to have his tie-dye shirt clean as that is what they are all wearing today, and when I questioned his choice of shorts this morning (it's a bit chilly) and asked him to put on pants he said, "NO! We are supposed to wear shorts!" So, he is in shorts. I am very proud of our little guy today and cannot wait to see him dance this afternoon.
