Last week Gavin turned 5 and this week he graduated from Preschool! Mommy, Daddy, YaYa and Poppa attended the family program. Poor Gavin got scared in front of everyone--especially, to perform in front of us. My poor baby covered his face during most of the ceremony and had tears running down his face. We are sooooo proud that he stayed up there the entire time despite how scared and embarrassed he was. He was very upset afterwards and disappointed in himself. I felt so bad for my baby boy! We told him over and over again how proud we were and I made sure someone would comfort him if he got upset during the second performance--the one performed for the entire school and teachers.
Here is the video of his special moment and when he received his certificate:
My worries for the second performance were completely unnecessary! Gavin got over his stage fright and had fun performing for the school. The wonderful director of the school saw how great he was doing in the second performance so she filmed it in short clips for us! I was so touched that she went out of her way to do this for us! It was a great surprise that made me cry. Now we not only got to see him at his best, but we also have nice videos to show him!
Please do not mention the first performance to Gavin. We are trying to focus on the positive experience he had the second time around. Here are the great videos from his second performance:
XOXO,
