Hailey's 5th Grade Music Program

Playing the Tambourine

As the time starts to wind down on our time at Prospect Elementary, we start to experience many of our lasts ever at this school.  Recently, it was Hailey's 5th grade music program. If you know Hailey, you know much she does not like music. In fact, she is one of only a handful of 5th graders who are not in band or orchestra. No surprise there coming from our family considering Austen and Peyton also did not participate and I refused to force them to try either as I knew it would be a constant battle to get them to practice if they didn't decide themselves to do it. (Peyton did think about it briefly as she learned that in middle school the band got to go on a trip to Disney and she wanted to go. I told her that shouldn't be her sole reason for joining band.)

Anyway, back to Hailey. She did not volunteer for any solo parts considering she said music was her least favorite class. But she looks just thrilled during the entire performance. So much so that a few days later, I was talking to one of my friends and she mentioned Hailey's enthusiastic performance that day. Ha ha. She surely made an impression. One that we will clearly remember long after we leave Prospect for the final time. 

Just Thrilled

Is this Over Yet?
