"The Things of Value You Can Only See With Your Heart"

A line spoken by Kamal, the blind beggar at the Bazaar...I got a chance to see the whole show (Keeper of the Tales) tonight and it was delightful!  It is wonderful to watch your kids have so much fun, meet new friends, and learn something new as well.  I love that Center Stage Jackson's Youth Theatre program is all about teaching the kids how to do everything involved in the show.  They even had a make-up session to teach them to do their own stage make-up and I was not allowed to help.....actually, I do not mind that...it is stressful to feel like I have to get them all ready....this show has been "a breath of fresh air" for me :)  I also love, and they do too, that a bunch of people ask them for autographs after the show....they feel famous :)  Karly has been sad that she was too young this year to participate, but she is DRAMATIC, so I am sure there will be some spotlight left for her.  She has been telling all the others how they should deliver their lines :) (I haven't told her this, because I know the others are annoyed, but she delivers their lines quite well!)



We decided we would celebrate a successful second night with two rounds of Nachos Amigos at Los Tres Amigos and I learned something tonight....well, two things....one is that tonight was happytizer night/or because it was after 8pm, so appetizers were half off :)...and two, one can say they are a "regular" at a restaurant, but it is not until a waiter or waitress acknowledges that you are a regular that you are, in fact, a regular.  Does that make sense?  So, we were paying for the our nacho binge and the man I was paying said, "We'll see you tomorrow!"  We have been starting into a habit of eating at Los Tres on Sunday afternoons because they have such a great price on kids meals :)  So, that felt kind-of weird that he knows what day we usually come....but, good at the same time....being a "regular" somewhere is kind-of heart-warming.... Like, now we are friends...well, AMIGOS, I should say :)
