Jarek's Cat in the Hat School Program

Tonight we went to watch Jarek in his Reading Celebration program. Grandma Cathy came along too. He got to sing some Dr. Seuss songs. Good thing we got there early, so we could get some good pictures before all the hats got there :)

Here he is pre-show, cool as a cucumber

During the show, it was a bit hard to see him because his classmate Joshua was in front of him. Joshua is one of the tallest kids in his class, and of course he had his hat sitting on the very tip of his head. We did get a few good shots of Jarek singing. He doesn't like to smile for the most part while he's singing.. he doesn't think that's what he's supposed to do and doesn't want to get in trouble :)

Here Joshua has his head turned to the side, thank goodness.

Jada even got into costume during the after-party festivities

What do you suppose Jarek read before going to bed? The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss. He is doing so well at reading. He is at a 2nd grade reading level, so I am very thankful for his teachers who have done such a great job encouraging reading. Good job Jarek!
