Alec's class performed a play called "The Hat" based off a book by the same title written by Jan Brett. His class had been studying Jan Brett for a few weeks and I heard lots and lots about Jan Brett's art, ideas, and love of hedgehogs.
Alec wasn't exactly excited about performing in the play. In fact he flat out told me he didn't want to do it, but when it really came down to it he did fine. He gave his Rooster line loud and clear, and smiled great big smiles at me the entire time. As long as he can see and focus on me he does just fine.
After the performance we had cookies the class made the day before. Alec was so proud of his performance and his sugar cookies. I was really proud of him too.
It's so fun to see my kids learn and grow and have new experiences.

That is a very brave thing to do. He should be proud of himself for confronting his fears. It takes a lot of guts.
Tell Alec I SOOOO wish I could have been there to see his play. Good job, guy!
