Johanna had the opportunity to participate in a stage production of Frozen Jr. 
Now, when I first saw the email in March with the big kids in the Finney show, FCWC on the horizon, and my responsibilities for standardized testing looming over me, my finger went directly into “Swipe that Email Away” mode and just as I started the swipe that would have eliminated One More Thing on my calendar, I hesitated, imagining how much Johanna would enjoy doing a show.

And here we are.  It’s showtime.

The practices were just just once a week.  It was a long 2.5 hours each Thursday up to Webster and back, but manageable as only a 11-week commitment. 

She ended up with a handful of small roles that allowed her lots of songs and choreography and costumes.

She owned every minute and we all rejoiced in seeing her on stage.
