Guest guest Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 I am so sorry the festival didnt work out for . But I didnt think it was great that the kids tried to cheer him up. It always makes me happy to know there are nice little kids out there. We hear so much about the nasty ones. I was also irritated by the woman uin front of you. How rude! Of course 3 yr olds are not the best seatmates in a theater but for god's sake! Its a children's production at school! Sheesh. There will be other shows and hopefully w will be more comfortable next time Jacquie H > When I got up today, I explained that today was > the day he was singing in the festival.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 Oh, Tuna... that is rather heartbreaking. Obviously, he didn't feel left out or anything, so that is good, but it's still heartbreaking for you. And poor .... searching for her brother. ( As for the wench who told you to watch from the window, I cannot believe you obliged her! I'd have given her a look to strike her dead on the spot, and then made SCREAM.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 That's too bad that didn't want to participate, but such is life. I'm glad the teacher was not one of those that would try to force him. Sorry you had to deal with some idiot woman that made you sit outside. People like that annoy me to no end. It is moments like that when I wish I had my mother's talent for speaking her mind with conviction. She would have told that woman off, stayed where she was, and come of looking like the hero. How does she do that? Amy H--in Michigan Kepler 4 1/2 ASD and Bethany 6 NT " Harmony breeds ignorance. It is the dissonant chords of life that lead us to wisdom.
