Vivienne’s school had a Veteran’s Day assembly on Tuesday and the local news came to do a story about it. The real story was about how they did a candy for soldiers drive where kids brought in their non-chocolate halloween candy and donated it to be sent overseas. Vivienne got in on the action, too.

I Tivo’d the newscast so that Vivienne could see it. She really didn’t care all that much. I think that seeing herself online and on home videos on the TV has ruined the magic of being on the small screen. My poor child, she will never be happy unless she is on the ‘big screen’.

Vivienne spotted herself right away. I looked and looked but did not see her until she pointed to herself. Then Phil and I both laughed for a good 5 minutes. Not only is she looking straight at the camera, she is the only one not singing and talking to someone instead. She looks confused and a little off. That’s my girl!

She arrives at about minute 1:17.
