My 7 year old, J, has been singing since she could talk. Really. Those that know her will tell you this is true. I had a preschool teacher tell me once that she could never watch the movie Annie again because she had heard J sing it so much. :)
A few weeks ago we went out to breakfast and J saw a poster for an American Idol contest for our town and just LIT UP. Can I do that mom?????? I told her I would look up more info when we got home. I looked it up and there was a 12 and under catagory....sigh. Now let me just say I want what is best for my kids.....BUT I am not the mom that will be spray tanning my gals and looking into getting them veneers.
so....
I talked to her music teacher (who has approached me before about Julia and her singing) she said that it would be a great fit for her....sigh. :) OK so J is signed up to audition. There will be judges and then possibly moving on to the "next round" where she would perform at our towns 4th of July festival.
No matter how this works out, she will learn something. She will learn how auditions work and she might learn how to be "gracefully disappointed." Either way she is going to have a mom cheering her on, and most likely sweating thru her shirt!
I will keep you posted on how this all works out....should be fun!
