My 14yo “daughter on loan” (my friends daughter that is staying with me) had her school musical the other day. She was Little Red Riding Hood and she did so awesome!

My 12yo son and I went to watch the 1st night’s show and it was so good! Those kids worked so hard and all of their efforts paid off. The audience was 100% entertained for the 50 minute musical.
Here is a small clip of “Red Riding Hood”.

Now getting her ready for the play is another story! Remember, I’m a mom of all boys and “hairdo’s” aren’t a priority in my house generally. But Taylor, needed/wanted curls in her thick, straight long hair for the play. What’s a “mom-on-loan” to do? Admittedly, I’m not a girlie girl.  I’m a wash and wear kind of gal myself, but I DID grow up in the 80’s and had the big hair to prove it!  I channeled my Aqua Spray (aka hair glue) self from the 80’s and I did my best. Each night of the play, we spent 40 minutes inhaling the fumes from mega quantities of hairspray.  We sweat over the hot curling iron and at the end, we did ok!

Taylor hopes to be on Broadway someday.  I think she’s well on her way to realizing her dreams.  She is so determined, motivated and feels there’s nothing she can’t do (rightly so).  I have no doubts she’ll fulfill her dreams.  Keep dreaming big my Taterbug!

Now to find a chisel to remove the over-spray of hair glue (aka hair spray) that is covering my bathroom door, door knob, floor and countertop!
