March 23

Abby's drama class performed a number from "Hamilton" this morning during the school's talent show, and they were actually quite good. (She's toward the back on the righthand side.)

As I sat there watching them, I felt a jolt of sadness-tinged nostalgia, because it occurred to me that it was something of a swan song for this group of eighth graders. In less than five months, they'll all be in high school. High school.

Still, potentially time-related lamenting aside, I'm thankful that we were able to go watch the show and to be part of the moment.
