Pirates in Plays

This has been a crazy week! Monday the sixteen month old I've been watching just had a tough day. She got mad at me when I told her she couldn't steal her sister's food so she screamed at me for half an hour! The next day she ran back and forth through the living room screaming, for no apparent reason! Although I have to admit that if her brother and sisters' and I weren't laughing so hard she probably wouldn't have kept it up as long as she did!

Then last night I had the wonderful opportunity to see the entire fifth grade at a local elementary school perform a play called 'Pirates to the Rescue'. It was based on "Gilligan's Island" which just happened to be one of my favorite old T.V. shows to watch reruns of with my grandma when I was a kid.

I have to admit that at first I  was a little skeptical but since one of the kids that I've watched grow up asked me to be there I agreed. These kids, did a fantastic job! They sang songs, they danced, they only missed a couple of lines and they poured their hearts into it, they were awesome!

I know that this seems like a silly thing to blog about but I was really proud of them. They did a great job! So next time a kid invites you to a play or a recital, clear your calendar, it may not be Broadway but you'll enjoy it and you'll be incredibly proud by the time it comes for the final bow.
