So You Think You Can Dance?

Did I mention that my son is a mad, crazy, obsessive dancing machine?
He love all things music and dancing and secretly thinks he's the next Michael Jackson.
Typically he'll sing as well when he's at home (most recently singing Thriller at the top of his lungs and even including the high pitched "uh's" between verses.)
Yeah... I just read that and it doesn't really do it justice.
I'll see if I can get that on video.

Speaking of video's...
This is a quick one of Michael at a wedding.
Two things you should know about this video...
1. He did not stop dancing for 4 hours straight.
2. The pants and shirt he was wearing had to be permanently retired after this event based on the non-stop breakdancing.

Enjoy!

Michael the Poet

Michael's last day of school this year was a big deal for him. He had a big performance and he couldn't stop telling us about how great he was going to do and how he'd written this great poem that he was going to recite for the audience with a microphone.
He kept it a secret...
only telling us that he
a: wrote it himself... and
b: knew he was going to get a laugh.

On the day of the performance, each child had written a poem about themselves using the letters in their names as the beginning of each sentence.
Some of the kids stumbled, forgot the lines, etc... (normal for 6 year olds & normal for some adults I know.)
But not my Michael.
He did great and got the laugh he was looking for.

Here is the lyrical prose my son created:
M - Magic is cool
I - Interested in science
C - Comedian when he tells jokes
H - Having fun playing video games
A - Available for $6.99 (this would be his guaranteed show stopper)
E - Every now and then a little crazy
L - Loving for my mom

Well, everyone loved his availability for the surprisingly affordable price of $6.99.
But me? I was too busy trying not to cry at "L" - loving for my mom .
