The same little girl, who at her first birthday, would only look at the ground, because the crowd made her uncomfortable…
The same little girl, who wouldn’t open her presents at her 2nd birthday, while the guests were watching...
The same little girl, who, for every soccer picture I have of her between the ages of 3-5, her hands are covering her eyes, and she’s almost in tears...
The same little girl, who wouldn’t speak to her father when he came home at the end of the day, because he’d been gone all day, at work, and she hadn’t warmed back up to him, yet (Jake used to joke, that it was like 50 First Dates, with Lily)...
Yesterday, I watched that same little girl, sing and dance in front of her entire school. A crowd of about 400 peers, and their teachers.
And, last night, at a repeat performance, I watched that same little girl, get up on a stage, and sing and dance for a crowd of about 100, parents and a handful of peers.
And she was amazing!!!
I don’t know what’s wrong with the color…but, here’s the proof:
Proud doesn’t even ALMOST describe what I’m feeling!

What a cute perfomance. And you should be very proud. How many kids have the nerve to get up there and do that? I bet not many.
You go, girl!! I bet you are bursting at the seams with pride!!
