The Scat Cat Hustle


[Maddy's in the middle in the green shirt]

A few weeks ago, Maddy started singing a "cat" song and doing some rather strange movements. Now, I dance a lot like Elaine (from Seinfeld), but hoped that Maddy would not inherit my lack of rhythm and luckily, she is a good little dancer with a great sense of rhythm!




She finally let the "cat out of the bag" (tee hee hee!) -- it seems the 3rd graders always do a Scat Cat Hustle song and dance at the end of the school day towards the end of the year.

It happens on a random day and only 3rd graders and their parents know when it will occur. So happy that I knew so I could be there to see it. Wished I could have caught it on video!






Oh my word -- it was the cutest thing ever! Of course, it would land on one of our incredibly windy days, so they had to hold on to their hats!



[Adorable!!]
