thursday, february 28, 2013, was gibson's third grade musical performance of the jungle book. even though i watched rehearsal all week, plus two other performances from my own class, nothing beats watching my own child perform on stage.
hallway decorations
the backdrops that gibson and drew had the privilege of painting
jungle flower waiting with anticipation
looking on
time to shine, singing "here comes the sun" in a small group of eight girls
a bit of a dance in between verses
gibson's artwork was chosen for the big screen during the performance, too. what a talented little girl
set for bows
friends (hope)

proud sisters
