'Merica

Elijah's 1st grade program was close to Memorial Day, and appropriately the theme was America. They sang patriotic songs and it was super cute. 

Kicking things off with the National Anthem.

Lijee was picked for a small line to introduce one of the songs.

"Our flag has more than one name. Sometimes it's called 'The Stars and Stripes.' It's also called 'Star Spangled Banner' or 'Old Glory.'"

for purple mountains majesty

above the fruited plain

America, America, God shed His grace on thee

 Side note: it was really hot in there that night. He did a super job, but by the end, Eli was over it.
