Last night we were walking home from dinner and stumbled upon an outdoor concert. We decided to stop and watch the show for a bit before continuing on our way home. Turns out this was the first night (in a series) of local entertainers performing free for the community. The band was at the end of their performance and the next to come on stage was a pair of mime/magicians. The kids were enjoying the show when one of the magicians came up to Jake and took his hand and asked him to come up on stage. Jake looked a bit frightened, but agreed to volunteer and headed up on stage.
Even though Jake couldn't see what was going on, he was spinning plates on these sticks that they had him hold. As you can imagine, we were all laughing. They had Jake do a few more tricks and then rewarded him with a lollipop at the end. When Jake came back to his seat, he was smiling and very proud of himself.
That is so great....gotta love the unplanned, on the fly, concerts that turn out to be a great night. I love the way Jeff taught him to sit up on stage, like he's on a talk show getting interviewed....hilarious.
