Bethany started her play performances this week! She had evening dress rehearsals Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and the play opened Thursday night! They performed Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. I got to see it Friday night as did Kevin, Savannah, Ben, Mariah, and Grandma and Grandpa Gazdik. We loved it! Anastasia is a beautiful play and their cast did a beautiful job. Bethany even had some solo lines she got to sing in the play as "Woman Number 1!" Beth does a fantastic job being animated on stage and we love seeing her smiling and singing.

All that work is draining, of course! Beth has been able to do all the rehearsals and plays and we are so glad! She has not been able to make it to school, but she has been able to do some homework during the day and that is something. She thinks she is feeling a little better on the growth hormone so that is something, too.

Ben had guitar this week and some cross country. He went to a game night with his friends on Saturday night and had a good time. I asked him to spend some time off of screens on Saturday. Do you know what he did? Organized the AP World History flash cards that we found in the closet. He had a great time.

He also helped Beth with her hair. This is how.

Savannah had a good week but a hard weekend as she is trying new medication for her anxiety. Still, she watched Micah on Saturday night while Megan and Ammon went to Beth's play. She really liked that!
