Grandparents Day

Roman and Capri had their first official school program and it was A. Dor. Able. The entire program was dedicated to grandparents and they were lucky enough to have all four there. They sang several songs, many with actions, and then invited us to their room for cookies afterward. We loved watching them up there with a hundred other 1st graders, all wearing white shirts and a scarf of their choosing.
Capri and Roman were very different participants, however. There Capri was, front and center, and she didn't miss a beat. She smiled, she sang, she did every little action. Roman, on the other hand, was a bit more choosy as to when he would do such things. You knew within the first few seconds of the song whether or not he was going to really get into it. If he liked the song, he was great, smiling and all. If not, he exhumed boredom. It was hilarious! Playing with his scarf, chatting with his friend, or just standing there...it made us all laugh!
The best part of the day was definitely seeing Roman and Capri's reaction to seeing all four of the grandparents there. They were so excited to show them their classroom and their sweet letters they had written. A great day.
