This was a long awaited event in the Watson's household. For some reason the older two kids just love to be on stage and perform. Yes, they get nervous and feel butterflies in their stomachs, but they really enjoy the thrill that comes from being in front of people. This year, Davis Drive Middle School held its Talent Show at the very end of the school year. Approximately 55 students auditioned but they could only pick 15. Alex auditioned with his piano/singing number "Your Song" (Elton John's cover) and Katya sang "Defying Gravity" from Wicked. Robert and I were not surprised when they found out that they did get a spot in the final show.
We were also very excited because my mom was visiting us and was able to go see the show!
Both Alex and Katya did so well! We were very proud of them! Alex was the first person to perform. He was the only piano solo/singer.
Katya was the last to perform. There were a few other girls who sang for their talent performance.
But...Katya was something else:) She charmed the judges and after all won the first place! It was a huge boost to her confidence, of course:) There were kids snapchatting about her as she became school's overnight celebrity (or so she was told by friends who have Snapchat).
We, as parents, are just happy to see our kids do their best, work hard and enjoy themselves in "uncomfortable" situations. I cannot wait to see what else comes out of these two in the next few years!
Lyana.
