the youngest of the brood just got done with an entire day of regional competition..... out of 5 events, she will be going on to state level in 4..... 3 vocal events, including alto solo, and 1 band event, playing alto sax...... additionally she will be competeing at state level in speech forensics.....
to think i robbed my older kids of these opportunities by adhering to a ridiculous man-made admonition to keep separate ..... i dont know who i hate more.... me or them
Chickpea to you and your Daughter...!! That is an amazing accomplishment.. YOU must be proud...
Don't feel too bad, we've all caused our children to miss out one way or another... I did the same. My oldest didn't get to do anything. My youngest experienced it all...........
Just enjoy the moment...

thanks, casper!
i think i am actually more happy than proud, altho that element is a huge factor as well....
it is just very satisfying to see this child, who has had huge issues that had her feeling "judged as unworthy" by the b0rg actually presenting her skills and talents for judgment and feeling good about herself......... in a way she never could before the WTS was relegated to history as a huge "error in judgment"
