See that Star all the way to the left? That's my little Star shining bright. She held that star up so proud, she wanted everyone to see it. She has been practicing everyday and she sure did great!
I'm right here MOM! Can you see me among all these kid, it's me- LOLO!!! She was waving frantically for the first 5-10 minutes of the program- we definitely saw her! But then if I could turn the camera around to show what she was looking at, it would have been a whole pew of Lolo fans, standing up waving at her as well!
Here she is, my little Star of the night! Lolo!!! She is doing her weird smile here, I keep telling her to smile nice not scary, she has such a beautiful smile- if I can get her to show it! Check out those eyes though- WOW- I love 'em!!
Let me introduce you to Bella. Lolo and Bella just met this year in preschool and have been inseparable. All we hear about is Bella, Bella this, Bella that. "Lolo what did you learn about in school today?" "I dunno...but Bella was there and she was wearing......" (head to toe description of every detail of clothing about...Bella! I love that she has found such a great friend.
Her program went really well, the kids all sang their songs really nicely. There was of course the one REALLY loud child, and then the kids who are staring off into space, the ones who are wishing they were anywhere else and then LOLO who was singing to her hearts content. I am really glad I have her in dance classes, she loves to perform and has no fear of being in front of people. Although my favorite and my families favorite performance is the songs she sings in the bathroom at the top of her lungs. "You get a line, I'll get a pole, we'll go fishing in the craw fish hole, 5 card poker on Saturday night, Church on Sunday morn." and again Louder and Louder. The bathroom echoes, it is the longest bathroom trips she takes! Listen to it below....

What a beauty!
I recognize the smile too. My boys all smile different for the camera than they do otherwise.
awe, so sweet and she does have a beautiful smile (my kids do the same "scary" smile sometimes) and her eyes are GORGEOUS).
My daughter use to have that same dress. :)
Lolo is so cute! I love the picture of her waving at you. You are blessed to have such beautiful girls!
that's sooooo cute!
SHE's soooo cute!
She is beautiful!! No wonder you are a proud Mom

So cute, you sweet little girl and she definitely was the "brightest star" - take care. Kellan
She is just precious!
The smile thing - I think it is a preschool thing b/c I have an entire YEARS worth of albums with a similar smile on my little one's face!
Thanks for sharing!
All your daughters are so beautiful and what a proud momma you are! It's posts like this one that makes me so excited to be a mom!
Your girls are just precious! I remember the days of "goofy picture smiles" and it used to drive me crazy. Looking back at the pictures now that they are teenagers, I have to smile, because I realize it wasn't as big of a deal as I thought it was when they were little. As long as you get some cute photos with their real smiles, once in a while, you will appreciate all of the pictures, later on.
I think that I might have confused you by saying that I have three teenagers and a 20 year old. I only have four girls, total, but if I say I that I have four teenagers, my 20 year old reminds me that she is no longer a teenager! I know that it's true, but still...
With four, you will ALWAYS have your hands full! When they are little, it is the physical chaos, but when they get older, it is the emotional chaos! I promise that you will be able to handle whatever comes your way, but it will never be easy or boring! I LOVE having daughters. I really do, but once the hormones kick in...oy!
Take some time for yourself once in a while. It really helps!
What a cutie that Lolo is! She does look like a little "star", her confidence shines right through! Pretty velvet dress, too!
Cute, cute pics. She is adorable!
