Last night we had a bit of a late one. No, it wasn’t date night, but we were lucky enough to go to the O2 arena in Greenwich, London, to watch my Lil Princess singing!
Her school were registered with the Young Voices Choir, and they, along with around 7500 children, had been practicing for the last 6 months, to sing at this show!
What a buzz to see my daughter there!
It was just over 2 hours of music and entertainment!
There were performances from Laura Wright, who sang at the Rugby World Cup here last year, Tom Billington, the Beatbox Collective, and Urban Strides, a dance company. The kids sang alongside them all, as well as singing medleys of many songs! It was in fact awesome!
To think that in a few years, she will be able to boast that she sang at the O2!
It was great watching her, as she pretended to be a rock star! Yes, my photos show her as a dot… but I know which dot is her, and I am so proud of that dot!
They had great seats, at the front, right next to the conductor, and we were on the floor, but a little towards the back. Still, with binoculars, we got a great view!
They all held these little key ring lights, and when it was dark, and the children were shining those lights, it looked like a starry night!
We got back after 9.30pm. Lil Man was exhausted and was in bed as soon as his teeth were brushed… The choir didn’t arrive back until 10.45pm!
A late night, and school the next morning? Uh oh… I wasn’t sure how this one would play out, but you know what, she stayed in her bed, a massive thing in its own right, and she was up at 6.45am, changed and ready for school!
Wonders will never cease!
Still, Proud Mummy signing out!
But I Smile Anyway...

Kat, it was a little terrifying, but as I am a t a her at the school. The staff think if my kids a bit as their own, so I knew she would be well looked after and safe…. And I have come to realise we can’t hold them back because of our fears … 😊
It was amazing though, and she was so happy after,mother confidence in her was reason enough to know we did the right thing!
