after a very long dress rehearsal, one i'm sure emerson would not have volunteered to attend had she known we would be in the eighty-five-degree auditorium for almost three hours, the big evening arrived.
and she looked great!
nineteen seats, three lap children, a bag of snacks, and two, hot, sweaty hours later, it was over. other than the modern dance, which i could so do without, it was worth the wait to see aw. as i sat, surrounded by our families, sweaty and hungry (them, not me), i was really overwhelmed by how loved we are. even though it was painful for a few (ahem, gary and the daves), when aw was up, all i saw were smiles. big smiles. huge smiles that made my face hurt.
