And I'm proud to be an American

Today Tayler had her big 2nd grade program. It was a patriotic theme and all the kids did a wonderful job. She has been singing all the songs every night for weeks now and today was the big program. She was so excited to go to school and couldn't wait for us all to get there. They had to wear Red, White or Blue and the gym was decked out with Flags and other patriotic symbols everywhere. It was darling.

My favorite song was "I'm Proud to be an American" by Lee Greenwood. I have always loved that song (call me lame), and today being the 7th anniversary of when my dad passed away really struck a cord with me and the tears freely flowed. I couldn't even try to stop them. I'm sure everyone around me thought I was a nut case, but that's okay. I loved it and was so proud of my little 2nd grader. They sure grow up fast don't they? She is such an amazing little girl. I am a big FAN!
Way to go Tayler.
