Well....she did it!

To conclude my earlier post, J had her audition for our towns "American Idol".  She was so excited!  We arrived early and she got her little number. I looked around, she was defintely the youngest one there.  They called her number and off she went.  I waited in the lobby for her as they wanted them to audtion without parents.  That little freckle faced 7 year old marched back there with zero nerves!  She skipped back about 30 minutes later and said it went really well. The next day I got an e-mail telling me that she made the semi-finals! WOOOO HOOOO!    This means that she gets to sing at the towns 4th of July festival.  After that then the finalists are chosen and they will sing right before the fireworks display. 

I am pretty sure this is the mnost excited I have seen her. She is spends all of her free time singing!
Well almost all of her time.....this was on our front door
I will translate for you...it says  "DANCE PARTY- right now. $1.00 per person" then our address is listed below.    With a straight face I asked her- "J- tell me how you are expecting this to work?"
J-"Well mom people will drive by and see the sign and stop for my dance party."
me-"So let me get this straight- you are hoping strangers will drive by,see the sign, come into our house, dance, then hand you a dollar?-
J-"yep, pretty much"
In case you were wondering we have yet to have strangers dance in my house and pay us money.  If they do, you wil be the first to find out.  :)

L- is her normal self = a 2 year old. 
She threw an EPIC fit today. WHEW!
I will have more happy things to post about her on a different day, you know when she is not cutting molars!

Off to make dinner....yummm steak!

  1. J reminds me so much of myself when I was her age. I used to hold talent shows, and if I remember correctly, they were on a nightly basis. Not only for my folks (god love 'em) but also for the neighborhood families. I wonder how they remember me?!?! :)
