Claw

Little miss Haana's school was doing a musical for end of school year. This is her last year at the Elementary school, so even more special. For the musical is called Claw. They're all toys inside an arcade game of Claw (where you put in some money and get a few seconds to move a joystick to get a Claw to choose a stuffed toy). She auditioned amd got the part of one of the 4 Flair Bears - one of the 4 toys that sing and dance and are full of sass and beats! She put in a lot of time practicing both at school after hours and at home; singing the songs, practicing her lines, getting her moves right!
On the day of the performance, we were all so excited! Last performance of elementary school! She didn't want to be late, so she stayed back at school. I picked up Bobby from his school, picked up nuggets and French fries from McDonald's and then came to school. We snacked in the car before heading back in to school. Raj joined us too.

Soon the performance started. I found a spot right in the front to capture videos. Bobby say on my lap. I focused on my flair bear! The musical was so funny and sweet and sassy and entertaining! It was even touching and emotional in parts, I had tears in my eyes when they talked about saying good bye. 

The songs and dances were so good. Bobby was enjoying it too. At one point, he couldn't just stay out of it. He ran to the stage to little miss Haana and hugged her. Haana hugged him back and he sat with her, becoming one of the stuffed toys of the play! When they got up to dance to a number, Bobby got up and did the same moves as well! It was so cute to look at the amazing bond between them,  of love and trust and companionship. Of joy. It was so special!

The musical was such a roaring success! I am so proud of little miss Haana!
