Today was the final choral concert of the season. MAC came home like every other day called me. I asked her the same questions I always do: "Have you gotten home ok? Don't eat everything, ok? You have food all your own, but when it's gone its gone! Did you have any homework? Make sure it's done because we have your concert tonight." She gave me the standard teen, "I know"
We got to Maryland Hall at 10 of 6. It gave me a chance to embarrass MAC by talking to her teacher, and helping to hand out the blue buttons that go on the girls dresses and cummerbunds, bow ties, and button studs. This was after an e-mail to her teacher about the time. The teacher said that she had sent a paper to the parents explaining about the concert. The other parent I talked to said that she had not seen it either.
The choir sang 4 songs by themselves and 2 combined with their feeder schools. The strings played afterward and the band began playing.
By the end of the concert I was feeling sad. Unless she has worked really hard (and I don't think so because she has been doing any homework) she will not be able to stay at Bates making this our last PVA concert. I was happy to see her playing with some friends and smiling. It made me sad to think that this could be the last concert she sings for Bates.
Tonight we found out that all this time there has been an Itialian project that was due today. She and her father will work on it tomorrow and she will hand it in on Wednesday. She also has a music paper that was due several months ago. The teacher just decided tonight that she could write a paper on the 2nd act of Eine Kleinenacht musique...I guess that will be Wednesday's chore. I really hope she can pass. The music teacher said that she has been making progress. Please keep us all in your prayers, we are in need of them! Thank you.
