Last week, Madeline starred as Sacagawea in the school musical of Lewis and Clark. I was so proud of her. She had to try out for a part, and I was excited when I found out she is playing one of the main characters.
I was surprised, however, when her teacher talked to me about how well she was doing memorizing all her lines. huh? What lines, I don't hear a thing about this at home. She practiced, obviously...but when? She never shared that she was excited, or scared. Even a few nights before the "show" she didn't seem to have any feelings about it.
On the night of the show, she was nervous. {Okay, she is normal!} On stage, she was picture perfect, didn't seem nervous at all. She sang her solo perfectly, and I was so impressed by her ability to keep her cool.
We teased her about being "married" to her school mate Drew....that was lots of fun. {because Sacagawea was married to Charbonneau}.
We are still singing the songs...
.they were Lewis and Clark, Clark and Lewis.....
