Weesatche's Got Talent

Walker had his first paying gig last night at the Weesatche Dancehall. I wish I had a picture of it. Last night we went back to our favorite winding-down-for-the-week place with some friends. Remember last week's post? Twice this month already!

Well, last night there was a karaoke machine set up in the dance hall and a pretty good singer providing entertainment for everyone. The kids had a BLAST dancing to the cupid shuffle, cha cha slide and the macarena. Before I knew it, someone comes in the cafe and says, "You better hurry in here, Walker's about to sing!"

Yup, my baby boy was on stage belting out hillbilly deluxe and loving every note! He knows all the words. The best part was during the intrumentals. He would clap his hands above his head and everyone else joined him! It was one of those moments when you rush the stage to get closer to your favorite band or singer! Smiles, singing along, whoops and hollers!

Walker got lots of pats on the back and handshakes when he finished. He walked off the stage like it was no big deal, like it is something he does all the time. AND he made $2! He thought that was the best part. Someone gave him a tip for singing so well. What a little showman!

When he got back in the cafe, someone asked him to run for county judge! Hmmmm........politician or famous country singer?
