School Christmas Concert
It was decided this year instead of having two separate concerts for the K-5 and 6-8 they would have only one concert! This makes it easier for us parents that have one in Elementary and one in Middle School. Everything was all set, Ciaran would spend the morning with my FIL and we would drive Liam and Mackenzie to school that morning and take Finn with us. Now getting everyone out the door in the morning is always a challenge. I would say it’s probably one of the most stressful things for me, getting the boys strapped into their carseats, making sure that I have everything, and the kids have everything, it always seems that something gets left behind. School Concert day was one of these days…Liam’s backpack with his lunch and dress shoes (of course he insisted on wearing his suit) was sitting right at his launchpad in the front room! I, of course was upset but tried to not let it get to me. I decided the best thing to do, was watch Liam as his class was one of the first to perform, then sneak out and head home to make sure I got back in time for his recess and to see Mackenzie’s class sing. They looked so cute with they antlers they made in class singing Rudolph. Here’s a few shots:
After Liam performed I snuck out and rushed home to grab his backpack and lunch. I also grabbed a change of clothing just in case he wanted to change out of his suit, he replied with a, “No mommy the boys said I looked like the principal!” I guess in Kindergarten this is still a good thing! 
I ran back up to the gym, only to find out I had just missed Mackenzie’s class! 
This is honestly the first time I had wished we lived closer to the school. The kids are in French Immersion, and ouir neighbourhood’s school doesn’t offer it, so they have to get bussed to another part of the city. It’s a nice big school (formerly a highschool) with lots of immenities, but can be inconvenient at times. Although I did miss her perform, my MIL got a video of her and I grabbed a few shots of her and one with her friend Joli.
