A Star is Born

L did a great job acting in her recent school play. On opening night, she said everyone was laughing so hard she had to pause between her lines. She said she found herself improvising as she heard the laughter. After the show came the congratulations from friends and strangers. She was on such a high after all the pure excitement. Apparently there was a mishap backstage. A girl ran straight into a pole because the stage hands didn't have a flashlight on it. But the girl was ok, just a bit bruised.

The next day her friend's mom called to say how much she enjoyed L's performance.

We thought she was really funny when we saw her a few nights later. (M was also able to take his 80 year old mom on opening night). L said it's been such a wonderful experience and has made so many more friends because of it.

Congratulations to L. Who knows she may have an acting career ahead of her. The great thing is she is confident to get up in front of a crowd and this will fare her well in her future. You must have felt very proud of her. Glad her grandmother got to see the show too.
