Samantha's play

Drama club has culminated into a performance of their play, "Space Pirates". Samantha shined as usual, being out front and extremely poised during her song and dances. Her audience included Todd, Shelly, Dylan, Jordan, Nana, Sheila, Daddy and I. Papa stayed home since Sofie was still ill and Grammy wasn't feeling well either. Thanks to Todd and Shelly for the flowers!

At the end of the play, the teacher gave a few awards out. Samantha was incredibly disappointed that she didn't get an award. We tried to explain that not getting an award didn't mean she wasn't important or didn't do a fantastic job and she seemed to understand. Samantha isn't a kid that likes the chorus line - she wants to be in the center, if not the center. She is a leader. But life isn't always about leading and this is the lesson of the day.
The quality of the picture is horrible, but Samantha is the 4th from the right.
