A Hula Christmas

Camryn's Christmas program at daycare was on Sunday evening. I meant to write about it sooner in the week, but the week somehow slipped by me. Anyway, we had been hearing Camryn sing "Feliz Navidad" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" as well as seeing her do the hula at home for weeks now. We had no idea why she was doing the hula, but we finally figured it out Sunday night. When it was time to perform, all of the kids came out on stage (Camryn went front and center) in hula skirts and leis. They proceeded to sing the traditional songs and then, Santa came out to read the story of Christmas. Unlike last year, Camryn was all smiles and pointing to "Santa Closet" while she listened to the story. After Santa was done reading, they all stood up to sing "Mele Kalikimaka" while dancing the hula. Finally, the mystery was solved. I can't even say the lines in that song, so it was rather entertaining to hear the kids sing it. Of course, we were proud parents in the audience and enjoyed every minute of the evening! Now, if we hear any of the songs she performed while listening to Christmas music in the car, we can hear her singing along in the back. She is really growing up and is absolutely loving the Christmas season!!
