The Cages We Build

To round out Zeke's junior year of extracurricular activities, he auditioned and earned a spot for a school play.

The play was called The Cages We Build. It was about a boy who had a rough background and the 'cages' he had built around himself that he felt he needed for self-preservation.

Zeke played the roles of step brother/ensemble. 

He was wonderful.

Time for bows.

Zeke has made a lot of theatre friends this year.

Although Zeke doesn't even have a theatre class, Mr. Mata has taken Zeke under his wing.

We're all proud of our Zekers.

The play was on both Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Sunday happened to be Mother's Day. After the play we made a yummy treat.

Since Vivi is staying with us we took her out for a Mother's Day walk to enjoy some wild flowers and a sunset.

I am blessed with a wonderful mother of my own, a fantastic mother-in-law, and three amazing kids who made me a mommy.
