The Joys of Motherhood

One of the more pleasant aspects of motherhood is the opportunity to see your children develop and watch their personalities blossom. It is always interesting to watch the kids and see how they all respond to the same situations in different ways.  Then as they get older and seek out their own interests it is fun to see glimpses of them from when they were young and how much stays the same and yet how they grow into themselves more.  Perhaps this doesn't make much sense to anyone else. 
Maddy was in a play (her first one) and I recorded some of it. Unfortunately, our camera doesn't record video well. You can't see a lot of what she is doing. She played the part of a jester, which I have to say, was a perfect fit. Truth be told, I am not sure why Maddy hasn't done more with drama before because I have always seen within her a flair for theatrics.  She also is quite a ham, so I thoroughly enjoyed watching her perform. The play was titled "Hamlet and Ted's Woe".  I am really proud of her for branching out and trying new things. She learned a lot about working with others in a different way than she does with sports.
