In the last couple of weeks, both of my children have become involved once again in their Theatre groups and band. Sarah was given 2 parts plus once again is serving as Assistant Stage Manager in her University's Fall Production. She is minoring in theatre and had thought to change that to a major so that she would receive two degrees, but after much thought, decided to just stick with a minor in Theatre and finish her degree in Child and Family Development, take some time off from school, get a real job and then go back and get her Master's. I think that's a wonderful idea and if she so wants to continue with Theatre, well then, she can look for some local productions and go for it.
Will started his sophomore year a few weeks ago, and with that began Marching Band Season. This year, he has decided to play mellophone with the marching band and his beloved trumpet in Symphonic band. He loves playing both, and with this years production titled "Rhapsody 3", he is really enjoying the mellophone. The band is performing 3 rhapsodies, one of them being the Bohemian Rhapsody and their on field marching is way over the top. I am really excited for him and the rest of the band. He also started up with Theatre again, he is serving on the Drama Club Board this year, and they have had a couple of meetings to begin preparations for their One Act Play competition. Will is trying out for a part this year, and is very excited.
So, where in the world do these kids get their talent? Hmmmm, switched at birth maybe? Even so, I love them dearly and am so proud of their accomplishments.
