Break a leg

So since Max started school late he didn't get a part in the play the acting class was already practicing for.  Max helped where possible and had a part where everyone speaks.  Just this past week, he found out that the lead in the play could not perform as he couldn't come to the dress rehearsals.  Max stayed up all weekend and studied.  He asked his teacher on Monday of he could audition...and he got it!!  The LEAD in the play just days before showtime.  It was so exciting to watch him, he did so well.  WOW what confidence my child has gathered with his new round acceptance of himself.  Who knew what being authentic could do. 

Chaz & LA

Max and I are in California.  We are here to attend the support group that Chaz is a part of.  We really would like to get a chapter started in Phoenix.  It went well.  I learned what I would like and NOT like to do for the parent group.  Max LOVED the teen group and was ecstatic that Chaz not only remembered him but commented on his lowered voice!!  We had alittle fun eating roomservice, hanging out on Hollywood Blvd looking at the stars, and just plain talking on the drive to and from.  We did hit some CRAZY weather with horrible rain and even slush, so we made an unscheduled stop to spend the night in Blythe.
