Luke & Karsten's Christmas Program

Luke & Karsten's Preschool Christmas Program
This past Monday evening was the Christmas program at the boys' preschool. Luke did a great job. He sang all the words and did all the hand motions. He has come so far... 2 years ago he would have never been able to handle all of the people and the noise. We are so proud of him. Karsten didn't really know what to think.....he was staring off into space. He was so over tired from a long day at school and no nap he mostly just stood there and took it all in. Jolie (my niece) was really into it. She is normally shy but not on Monday night.... she was twirling her dress and singing away... she did awesome!

Luke and his teacher... Miss. Gina

Karsten and his teacher.... Miss. Karol
