Yes, today was the day of Allie's "Winter Sing" (mustn't call it a Christmas concert). She did a wonderful job, smiling and singing whole-heartedly and not waving, which is against the rules. Her elementary school has a new music teacher this year who did a good job, though we were disappointed that the second graders were the only class who didn't have a song with choreography. And did you know that "Jolly Old St. Nicholas" actually sounds kind of sad. Oh well. She was very happy that both of her parents were able to make it and I'm sure Greg will be posting some photos soon.
Julia was busy today too, attending a short holiday party at her preschool. She brought a small gift and received one in return, a stuffed penguin which she hasn't let go of since she got home (probably since this morning's party, frankly). That's partially because she decided yesterday to give up her blankie. No, she hasn't given up sucking her thumb. She's just apparently giving up that specific prop.
I'll take what I can get.
For dinner tonight, Greg made turkey matzo ball soup, which was wonderful since the turkey cooked more that it had on Sunday. And now the girls are watching "The Nightmare Before Christmas" while Greg is snoring, sleeping sitting up on the couch. And he gives Dave a hard time for doing that!
