Lamentations of a Drama Queen

Last night, was the Drama Camp show. The kids sang and danced to So Long, Farewell; Be Kind to Your Parents; and You're Never Fully Dressed without a Smile. They danced to One Short Day. Abby was a selfish stepsister in a skit. She did a great job. She said her lines loudly and with emotion. When she realized the microphone was too high she had the presence of mind to adjust it so that she could be heard. In her scene she was arguing with her 'sister'--all those arguments with Andrew likely added to her technique! I was really proud of her stage presence, thinking back on all those times she hid behind my skirts!

Abby loved drama camp. She loved everything about drama camp. She loved her friends. She loved the counselors. She loved the director and his wife. This morning she has been lamenting it's end... "I miss drama camp!"
