Miss Patty Cake in Concert!

Tonight we attended a long-awaited, highly-anticipated event in the life of our daughter. Katelyn attended a Miss Patty Cake concert. If you've never heard of Miss Patty Cake, let me encourage you to visit her website. In short, the Lord has gifted her in a very special way to share the Gospel with children through song and dance! Some of our friends in China (thanks Wickershams!) sent us the DVD 3-pack when we moved back to the States three years ago, and Katelyn has LOVED watching them as long as I can remember!

Anyways, I randomly decided to visit Miss Patty Cake's website one day (they advertise it at the beginning of all her videos) to see what I could find out about this cool lady, and I noticed that she was coming to perform at a church in our area! I about wet my pants (and Katelyn is the one who just finished potty training!). I quickly ordered tickets (can you beat $5 a piece!!???), and invited Reese, one of Katelyn's best buddies/fellow Miss Patty Cake groupie, and her mom Jessica (who also happens to be one of my best buddies!) to join in the fun! We started out with Chick-Fil-A. Between the chicken nuggets, the play area, and ice cream cones, it wasn't for certain that the night could get any better. It did. We drove over to the concert, and walked inside the sanctuary. The girls had both been so excited all day about the show, so watching them enjoy it was just about as much of a treat as the show itself! At the end, Miss Patty Cake took a short break and then took her seat in the foyer to take pictures and give hugs to each child in line. She does this at all the shows, and it was so sweet to watch! What a fun memory tonight was!
