Neko sings at home. Non-stop.
Like last year, she’s adoring music at school. Her teacher has sent home a CD of the songs they’re singing and the accompanying word sheets. The day they came home with her, she sat us all down and made us hold an impromptu sing-a-long.
You would think it would naturally follow that she’s a happy concert participant. But there, in front of a big audience, you can’t get her on the stage.
So today, when they went to perform for a group of seniors, I was shocked to see her walk up on stage. Granted, she wiggled, chewed on her sleeve, and pulled funny faces, and I totally had to crop her out of the photo I sent to the newspaper. But hooray! She’s on stage!
I will take my victories where I can get them.
