Proud Parent Moment

This is Petey in her school play, The Wizard of Oz. She played the part of the scarecrow. She was told she was the youngest one (7th grade) to ever get a lead role in the school play. She did a fantastic job and we were all very proud of her. She was happy with it except post-play when the Wizard was a little sweet on her and wouldn't leave her alone. He's in the 10th grade. People come from all over the world to this school and dates for admitting students to grades are different everywhere. So he told her "technically I'm supposed to be in 9th grade and technically you're supposed to be in 8th grade so we're really not that far apart in age." Well, I'm the mother and I will only accept that reasoning when they're in their mid-twenties or later. Fortunately, Petey was a little "creeped out" by the whole thing and life has now moved on.
