90 Degrees in the Shade

[tfg_social_share]
It was pretty hot today.

But that didn’t bother the kids who had their plays to put on and their songs to sing! As showtime got closer, the sun began to go down behind the trees, offering shade for the performers and the lucky part of the audience who was sitting in the front rows.

A slight breeze picked up to make things even more comfortable. The sound of the leaves rustling in the large oak tress behind the stage sometimes drowned out the children’s tiny voices. But the acting continued and the laughter and applause was louder than those leaves.

As each group took the stage for their ensemble songs, the excitement was barely contained in their wiggly bodies and smiling faces. The music began and everyone immediately focused their attention on me. Here we go! The moment we have been preparing for! Mouths opened and out came the sweet sound of voices that were pure joy and innocence.

Nothing in the world could drown out that perfection of children’s voices in unison singing their hearts out! The sound of youth, joy and happiness. How lucky are we!?

Thank you children of Santa Lucia School!!

You rock my world!!
