For no reason at all: Anna's Show & Tell

Anna's kindergarten class is doing Show & Tell this month, as part of their public speaking requirement (or something like that) for each grade level. And like a good, diligent mom for once, I made sure that Anna practiced her mini-speech several times yesterday (and three times this morning for good measure) so she'd be ready for her turn this morning.

I took video of Anna a ton in the first few months after Charley died. We didn't own a video camera prior to his death (neither of us are/were video people) but I bought one before Anna's first birthday so I could have video of her just in case, you know, the worst thing happened again. (Paranoid much? Me? Never. [I prefer to call it being prepared.])

I have a few videos of Anna when she was 2 through 5, but not many…but thankfully, the fancy-pants DSLR camera I bought over 18 months ago has video built in, so I can shoot the occasional video whenever I want. The only problem comes when I want both video and pictures, and I can't do both.

Fortunately, yesterday it wasn't an issue during her practice run for Show & Tell. Here you go, for no reason at all. ;o) Enjoy!





P.S….Does the video quality on this upload totally suck? It's really choppy on my end, but my Internet connection is being really cranky this morning so I don't know if it's just me. Is it??

  1. It's choppy on my end, too, but totally adorable nonetheless. :) That gap-toothed smile at the end is fantastic. :):) Great job, Anna!
