Mom and Soph's excellent adventure!
Today Sophie and I went to see a play - alone, in the middle of the day! It was the Elves and the Shoemaker, playing at Fremont High School (formerly the Indians and in a more PC age the Firebirds (?). Anyway, it was fun to drive her there and then meet up with her school chums. I've never seen a play with hundreds of 4 years old before. It WAS amazing...especially hearing their unsolicited commentary. Kinda like seeing a late night movie in Oakland but I digress. Sophie loved the show and she was all rosy cheeked when we left. She asked me if we could get the DVD of the play and see it again - I think she thought the show was being taped. Anyway, I had to explain to her that shows are one time only and scheduled for repeat performances. She looked disoriented when I told her this and then sad. So we just drove back in relative silence. I told her we could come back when they play it again. Hopefully I could send Mike! ;-)
