Rockapella

We went to the Rockapella concert and had a wonderful time. Victoria was a trooper considering the show didn't get started till way past her bed time. Towards the end, she kept telling me she was thirst, hungry, and ready to go. The guys do a great job of keeping the show upbeat. She would cheer, clap, and dance with the rest of the crowd when ever she got the cue. I haven't been to a show in over two years. It seemed like a totally different experience especially taking my daughter. The songs were different. Their look was different and there is even a new tenor in the group. It was fun to hear new songs and some of my favorites that I have never heard live before. I sing "Up A Lazy River" to Vic before bed every night. They sang it and she was so excited. She also loved "Carmen Sandiego" and "Papa Was a Rollin Stone" by George. I hope this was the first of many shows with Victoria. I hope we can enjoy the same things in life and that one day she will appreciate staying up late for a concert! We got to meet the group after the show and Victoria got to meet Scott. She tells me that he is her favorite and she asks to see his picture on the website almost daily. I told him that he was her favorite and he got up from the table to get a picture with her. It made her night! Such a small gesture really excited this little girl and her momma! It was the perfect day! What a blessing to sing, clap, laugh, and smile till my face hurt.
