Today was Logan’s turn for the winter performance at school.  Connor has been asking us to pick him up to watch it, but unfortunately the show time was at his naptime.  Yesterday when Connor asked us again to pick him up for the show, Logan suddenly denied it.  He kept saying he did not want Connor there, and at the end, he explained that he worried Connor would go up on the stage to sing with them.

     Stuart and I both arrived at the school quite early; we just hung out in the cafeteria to wait for the performance.  The group came walking in from the back of the room right at start time and they marched up onto the stage.  Logan did not really smile; he looked so serious and concentrating throughout the entire performance.  I could tell that he occasionally glanced at us from the corner of his eyes, but the rest of the time he was focusing on his teacher who was guiding them.  They sang a few songs, did a poem and a drill.  Logan did fine and was participating but quietly.  One song got the parents all cheering as one of the boys did a funny solo dance which was quite cute.   At the end of the show, the children bowed to us several times, and they received a huge applause from the audience.

    We took a couple of group photos, then we returned to the classroom to pick up a gift from the children.  They had handmade ornaments with their school pictures for the parents.  Logan showed us around the classroom, and pointed out some of his artwork.  We chatted a little bit with other parents, and took some more photos.  Then the kids went on to recess while we said goodbyes.
