THE show.


Last night Nia was playing with Nick's phone because the kids like to dance to the MIDI file ringtones. (Yeah, we have some challenges with our Itunes library these days and so it's pretty much their only access to music... but VERY Haitian of them to find a way to have "music" so we're proud.)

She came up with this idea that she wanted to put on a show out on our veranda. So this morning she set to planning. I was her helper. She came up with invitations and a costume and a hairdo. We set the stage and lined up chairs in front of it.

It was, hem, special to say the least. :) In all seriousness, it was cute. After that we opened up the stage to others who decided they'd like to participate.

Fritzie, Prisca and I were the opening act with a rousing version of "This Little Light of Mine"

Then it was Nia's turn... She waited backstage and then...

Made her appearance
After the thunderous applause ended, the crowd became restless in their chants for "Papi Nick, Papi Nick, Papi Nick." He delivered an incredible interpretive ballet number (again, to one of the MIDI ringtones on his phone).

Bigsby even made an appearance in his flamboyant and over-the-top performance.
After which I followed with an ANGRY piece. Here I am yelling at my inner child.

Are we dorks? Well duh! But I daresay that fun was had by all...
