Yamaraashi-chan sings!

Yamaraashi-chan's school had their annual chorus this past Wednesday, and like dutiful parents around the countly Omaha and I trooped out and listened through the half-hour show.

It was actually quite fun. Yamaraashi-chan was having a good time when she was singing; between songs, she still has trouble holding still, but this wasn't at all like when she was in Kid Sounds, the local for-hire chorus. (She left the chorus after one fundraiser concert for Ronald McDonald House was twisted into a church revival sans altar call.) The girl next to her didn't even open her mouth while the singing was going on.

They did a number of traditionals, and one interesting piece in the dark with only their hands illuminated with blacklight. It was all good.
