Happy Birthday, Alex!

Alex’s birthday was on Thursday, and we celebrated with döner kebabs. We normally get them on Wednesdays for the half off deal, but it was a special occasion. James Bond even made a special appearance on the movie list that night. I also had 8L1 create him a birthday card, and their messages were precious. We didn’t do much on either of our birthdays, but whatever trip takes place the month of that person’s special day is “dedicated” to them. Mine was Köln for Karneval, and this month, we are going to Prague!
We hit a few bumps yesterday at rehearsal. To promote The Ransom of Red Chief, Alex and I had the kids make flyers to hang around the school. One of our less organized students realized she had a conflict with one of the show dates as she made a flyer. I can’t believe my head didn’t explode right then and there. The only thing I could do was to remove one of the character and ask one of my younger girls, Pauline, to take on this bigger role. Honestly, it was a blessing in disguise because Mirka was not dedicated and I see so much potential in Pauline. I think she will really step up to the challenge. I spoke with her after rehearsal, and she agreed to play the part.
