Primary Program at Church

This year Lorelei is a Sun Beam at church, which means this is the first year she got to participate in the Primary Program in sacrament meeting. It was absolutely hilarious. Lorelei had two parts, which we had months to practice and she had them both memorized. Her lines were, "I have faith that Jesus will help me keep the commandments" and "I can help my mommy and daddy." It was absolutely adorable. Of course, as they start the program with the music you get all teary-eyed as you see your little girl up there forcing out a word here and there to one of the songs. Suddenly, embarrassment flushes over you as you see your little girl, sticking her tongue out, making obnoxious faces, flashing everyone as she pulls her dress all the way up, picks her underwear out of her bottom, and yells out "hello"to one of her friends in the audience. Then her turn comes to say her part. She starts to say something and realizes the microphone is no where near her mouth, so she yanks it down as close as she can get it, almost in her mouth. All flustered, her teacher whispers in her ear the first part of her line, so, she gently WHISPERS the exact part into the microphone, then realizing she needs to speak up, she yells the second part into the microphone. Everyone had a good laugh. It is at that moment that you couldn't be more proud of your little girl, in front of all these people as she does her lines with power and conviction. Way to go LeiLei!!! You did it!!!
