Last week Juniper's preschool had a potluck picnic, with musical accompaniment from one of the dads. In good preschool fashion, there's a mic at kid height. During one song break, Juniper blew us away by unexpectedly, and quite seriously, striding up to the microphone and belting out "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." She needed no prompting or encouragement, just a guitarist who was willing to keep up.
Perhaps one of these days Aaron and I will stop being so amazed by the boldness of childhood. No fear, no hesitation, just the simple idea that singing as loudly and clearly as you can in front of a big crowd seems like a fun thing to do.
