The backstory is that Lauren was in the school musical “Honk”. Sonja, in kindergarten, was too young to be in it, but not too young to memorize every freaking word from the London cast recording. I got her on film.
I wish I could figure out how to put this here. It is amazing. You must go watch this little film of my niece Sonja the Broadway diva.

Easy! Just set up a free YouTube account and post the video to YouTube. Once it is posted, you’ll get a link to the video which you can put in your blog post, or you can even embed the video in your blog with an embedded link that is provided by YouTube.

Next time I’ll make sure she doesn’t have a “wardrobe malfunction”. I think Sonja and Francis (and Zephyr) tried on every article of clothing in her closet that weekend!
I love this video- Sonja is so INTENSE and serious- but you can see her crazy obsessive mind working through the lyrics. She is going to be fun to watch! She asked me the other day what she would need to do to be in the theatre when she grows up- so I explained how to become a Triple Threat: Singing, Acting, and Dancing. She seemed interested in doing all three.
Being a mom is such an adventure! These kids seem to show up with their own agenda!

I’m super impressed by Sonja’s dramatic flair.
