Brave!

Luca had an anxiety attack at the Spring Concert this year.  As a parent, this is hard to watch.  At that concernt, she had to be removed from the stage.  She has stage freight, to the max!  As her graduation approached and the kids spent more time practicing, Luca became more and more anxious and stated that she would not be able to get up there with her class.  Luca was told that if she could not get up there, she still had to take place in her graduation and get dressed and put on her cap and gown, which was a struggle.  The day of graduation approached and although there were tears at 6:05 pm, by 6:30pm Luca put on a brave face and did it.  She happen to be the first graduate called and when her name was read and she was to talk down the steps to accept her gift from the teachers, she froze.  I got nervous watching, but a few seconds later, she did it and we are so proud of her. We finished the evening with a little celebration with the Bensings. Luca is enrolled in Benjamin Bubb for Kindergarten next year, she is mostly looking forward to not having to wear uniforms.
