Amu in an operetta

Amu's first play. I am thrilled. It has  been a week since Amu joined school and she is in a play, rather an operetta. She is a flower in the play.
I think I was more excited about the costume. She is supposed to wear jeans and a green t-shirt with tennis shoes and has to have a hat with flowers on it.

I searched a lot for the perfect t-shirt and the hat. We got the shirt at carter's and the hat, I stitched artifical flowers on it with Swapna's help.
I did some stage make up for her and she looked great. I feel happy, but am sad that my little baby is growing up so soon.

At the play, she did not utter a single word but stood there for all the one hour. I am surprised she did not come running away from the stage which I think I kind of expected.

Phani mama and Swapna atha made her day special by joining us.

I got all emotional when I first saw her on the stage...

Here is my little flower
