Raccoon #1

Try outs for Peter Pan - the middle school musical - were this week. D-man worked VERY hard on his audition (which was great fun for me!) and was the only 3/4 grade boy to try out. 

The music teacher pulled him aside after the audition and asked him to come back for callbacks with the older kids because he sang so well! I am so proud of him for having the courage to go to callbacks with all the older kids and not even be concerned he is the only boy in his age group. 

While he didn't get the part of John, he does have a part with a speaking line. While he was estastic to just make the play on Tuesday; he was a bit disappointed today - a good teaching moment about risks and disappointments. Pretty darn proud of this kid! And of course, happy he is interested in music!
