My dad and I took Lily to the Prairie Nutcracker this Sunday. It is a local show, adapted from the original Nutcracker, that takes place in Kansas in 1863.
I had never seen the show and was excited to share the new experience with Lily. She loves to dance and had a wonderful time watching the show. It was fun to hear her perspective. She was convinced that there was actual magic happening on stage. Despite Lily's struggle to sit in her seat during the show, I'm glad we went. I've been waiting a long time for her to get old enough to share these experiences with her.
In a couple of months she and I will be travelling to Manhattan, Kansas to catch the national tour of Annie. She will have just turned five years old by then. It's going to be awesome to watch her watch the musical live. She is already familiar with the music, and I won't be surprised if she stands up and sings along with the show! One of the coolest parts of taking her to Annie is that Tom's cousin, Lynn Andrews, plays Miss Hannigan!! It's going to be awesome!
