I'm excited to see my two teenage daughters perform together in their theater camp production in a couple of weeks. Seeing my girls growing up so fast can be bittersweet, and I relish these moments when they are so clearly full of joy for what they are doing. They will even have a duet together!

I feel really happy for you! Iโ€™ve got two older daughters who are both into their performing arts and nothing will reduce me to tears quicker than seeing them blossoming during a performance, doing things that have taken years and years of practice and which I could never hope to achieve.

What a beautiful description of those beautiful moments! ๐Ÿ’— I wish I had tried theater. I think it can really help kids to develop social and communication skills, as well as confidence.
