Friday Night Fever

Last night Henry's preschool held it's annual disco. Henry and Milly were very excited about getting dressed up and going out for the evening. Plus Henry was very keen to show off his "funky moves".

Despite the all day build up of going to a disco, once we arrived Milly declared "I don't like it". Not a surprising first reaction from her as we were confronted by a room of kids, some running around, some dancing, and loud music. Henry headed straight for the dance floor and got his groove on. Milly headed straight for a chair next to Michael and didn't want to participate.
It was a well organised disco. There were kids entertainers on stage playing music and getting the kids to dance or do the limbo. They even had instruments set up for the kids to play. Henry headed straight for the guitars and managed to pull off some impressive guitar poses.

All rock gods wear glow-in-the-dark necklaces.


Milly is finally coaxed onto the dance floor but refuses to enjoy herself.

Despite the noise, Buster slept the entire disco.

After two hours and as the last song is played, Milly finally lets herself have a good time and has a dance.

Somehow this story struck a cord with me and took me back to my teenage years. You see when I went dancing, the boys, like Milly didn't have the courage to get up and dance and so the girls danced together and did the 'funky moves'. The boys on the other hand drank beer to find the nerve to get up for that last dance. I don't think their motives were as pure as Milly's though as I look at her dancing with Henry. I hope things are different when Milly gets to 16!

I can't believe how grown up they both look and how tall Milly is beside her big brother. There is definitely a stage career ahead for Henry though. As for Buster, he just lets the world go by and nothing gets in the way of a good sleep.

Clearly, angels in disguise your children! How cute they look and Henry was indeed busting some funky moves. I thought Milly would have been out there too!

BTW, Buster does indeed have long, elegant feet! :)
