Standing Ovation

Last night Kelton had an operetta that the first and second graders have been practicing for for months. I thought that it would be a rinky dink thing that was just a little singing and a whole lot of nothing. Boy was I wrong. Berta came up for one of the performances and left in ahhhhhhhhhhhh. Boy did they put on a show. It was so organized and the costumes were amazing. Each one handcrafted one at a time by local volunteers. The theme for the program was Wacadoo Zoo. Kelton was a snake in the play and got to do what he is good at.........the worm. It was a cute little play about animals who were different in every way. It taught the kids that no matter who you are and what you do it's o.k. to be different. What a great message. By the end of the program the kids got a standing ovation from the audience. Wow, what an amazing job they all did.
