We live in Texas and every now and then we are reminded that Texas is a bit different than other places. Case in point: Friday, Lauryn's school hosted a Homedown Hoedown as part of their PE program. The kids learned the "Hoedown Throwdown" from the Hannah Montana Movie.
In true Texas fashion, the kids also did the "Cotton Eyed Joe."
Of all of this, the highlight for us occurred at the very beginning of the Homedown Hoedown. Lauryn had told us that she was making a speech and sure enough, after all of the first graders and their parents were in the cafeteria, Lauryn walked up to the microphone and addressed everyone. It was a very sweet little speech of gratitude for the PE teachers and what they had done for the class. I can not believe how comfortable and confident she was at that microphone! We are so proud of her!!!
