Talent Show

 Kyler and Damon both decided to sign up for the school talent show.  Kyler immediately thought he should solve his Rubik's cube.  We thought it would be fun if they showed a timer with a countdown the audience could see.  He also added some drama by blindfolding himself in the beginning and mixing the cube up before he solved it.  Originally he wanted to solve it in less than 60 seconds (his best time is 56 seconds), but we thought with nerves and such he should put his timer at 90 seconds to insure success.

Damon struggled to figure out what he wanted to do.  He finally decided on break dancing.  We encouraged him several times to find some music, but he never did.  So he got up and did the dance moves without music!  

We were not able to attend the show because of COVID restrictions, but they steamed it live on Facebook for us to watch.  Oma, Papa Dude and Zadi all watched it live.  Kenney was even able to watch it at work with one of his patients!   I was super proud of both of these boys.  They are not the most extroverted kids so this was a stretch for them to get up there.  It was a great experience for Kyler, especially on his birthday!



They started the timer a little early, but he made it just in time!  It was so fun to watch how all the kids were cheering him on and supportive.  



One of the moms that works at the school sent me this video, and I love how you can see the clock from this angle.



Here are Damon's awesome moves.  I know this was really hard for him to do because he does not like a lot of attention just on him.  I'm really proud of him!
