Sept 30 th blog

When my internet started acting up I started hand writing my blog. Here is the first one I did. My daughter wows me. I often blog about my kids. But I noticed that I do so more about my son then my daughter. We both do alot of the same things together so its easy to focus on his achievements. I started spending some more time with my daughter so we could connect more. She is truly amazing me this year. She loves to sing, dance and act. This fall she has taken on 2 major productions. She is in Horizon stages Aladdin and she got a lead role as Red riding hood in her schools major production of Into The Woods. So now she is rehearsing 4 or 5 days a week. On top of that she wants to do basketball again this year. Tryouts aren't for a month yet and I personally don't think she can do all 3 at once, but my wife and I have left it as her decision. We trust that she can make the right choice. To see the smile on Shelby's(my daughter) face when she got the news that she was in these productions was awesome. She is becoming so much more self confident and believes in herself. Everyone in my family sings well with the exception of myself. I can make it through a toon, but a few cats and dogs may run for their lifes on some notes. Shelbys singing has always been good, this year she is becoming even better. I am so proud of her and happy that she is challenging herself and loving the choices she is making. As a Dad I can't be any happier.
