Let me start by saying I miss having a real<\/em> and decent<\/em> video camera. Both of these were shot on the iPhone as best I could, but man it was painful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While these both have limited value now, 20 years from now they will be priceless. This post is really a deposit into that archive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the kids elementary school, each teacher decides if they want to do something special at the end of the year. Andrew’s teacher had the kids perform in a play, Sydney’s teacher had them put on a concert for the parents and Max’s teacher didn’t do any performances. Most classes don’t do anything so I guess we were lucky to get two out of three. I’m making this point so that years from now I’m not asked “Where is my video Dad? You always make videos of Sydney and Andrew but not me.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blame your teacher Maximus.<\/p>\n\n\n
