Opening Night

Actually the show went surprisingly well last night for our first performance. The kids suddenly filled with energy and got into their characters and had fun. So, yay for that. Hopefully we can all do that 2 more times today and two times tomorrow. Two lonnnnng days! We have to be at the theatre at 1:00 and the shows are at 2:30 and 6:30. And we cannot leave. We're trapped, like rats in a sinking ship. Oh -- since the show IS a pirate tale I guess that's a very bad analogy. I take it back. We're guests who can not----ummm, do not, want to leave the party! (does that sound better? sigh)
The girls are coming in to see it tonight. And the boys are being drug, errrr, coming, too! So at least I'll have 7 people cheering for me. Wait, strike that. At least I'll have about 5 people cheering for me and two people so horribly embarrassed by my public performance that they'll just try to blend into the woodwork. So, to make it even better (for me, worse for them!) I should take my bow and then yell out, "Hi, Son #2 and Son #3!! Mommy loves you!!".
Now THAT could make up a couple of chapters in their books!
