More like Aaaargh! Matey! Why do I say that? Well because I missed a very important moment in my only grandchild's life. Sadly, I had to work and miss my 10 year old granddaughter's big moment on the stage. She had the lead roll in her Drama Club play this year. So I will have to live vicariously through the photos that various family members were kind enough to send me.
So to salve my wounded heart, I need to make these pictures public and hope that you, dear readers, will enjoy them as I have.
Her name is Lexi and she'll actually be 10 next month. She's a tall girl -- almost as tall as her Mom -- I think Mom tops in at 5 feet, so I do believe Lexi will be eating beans off Mom's head in another year (LOL!).
Here's a pic before she took off for the theater at the Middle School near where she lives. It's a local Drama Club that she's been doing for three or four years now and she loves it. My little Swashbuckler!

Her Papa said she didn't miss a line or a cue. Her father, however, said he never saw her studying her lines! Hmm, wonder what that says? I envision her up in her room practicing away from prying eyes. You know how that goes!
Here are a few other pics that were sent. I just love them! I did call Lexi from where I was teaching and apologized for not being there to see her. Her response? "You should be." Eeek! If you knew this child, she has a wicked sense of humor and that is just how it was delivered. She's a sketch!
Well, that's it dear readers -- me salving my wounded heart. I hope you enjoyed a peek into my personal space.
Ciao for now!
Ciao Bella!

She looks like she's having a blast Dee Dee! Did no-one video the performance? Maybe you could make her a little scrapbook of the play as her birthday present next month?
What a wonderful idea, Shona! Now why didn't I think of that? Oh, I know why! I hate scrapbooking! But I shall endeavor to put something together.
Wonderful photos, DD - looks like she enjoyed herself immensely! hugs, de
Knowing her grandparents (that being YOU and your hubs) wonder where she got her wicked sense of humor? Hope you get over the guilt of not being there! Hey, when she is a start on Broadway you can say you knew her when!!
