The avant-garde

Yesterday when I picked Sophia up from school... oh yeah! Sophia is in school. Kindergarten all day five days a week and she LOVES it! Plus apparently she is smart! But anyway, when I picked Sophia up from school she was in the playroom with her two best friends (as of today) and they were getting ready to put on a play. The room had all these chairs arranged on one side of the room and the girls were wearing various costumes so I sat down next to their math teacher to watch the play. After some giggling, brief monologues and a lot of walking back and forth in front of the audience, we decided to let the girls practice some more before putting on their play.

Unfortunately I worked today and did not get to see the play because for some reason 12 hour shifts are the norm around here and school doesn't end at 8pm, but I made sure to ask about it as soon as I got the chance. Strangely enough, I didn't ask as soon as I got home from work because a couple of mormons were standing on my front porch offering up Jesus Christ, and my husband noticed that they looked a little too scrawny. This of course meant a strange dinner with two teenage boys in shirts and ties and a lot of talk about the difference between acting like Christ and prosteletizing your beliefs. But as soon as I could politely excuse myself from dinner I asked Sophia about her play.

Sophia told me that she did perform her play today and that it went really well. I asked her what it was about and she said "Kitties". This seemed a little strange to me cause the girls mostly wore tutus and one of the girls wore a black veil but whatever. Then I asked Sophia what she did in the play and she said I sang a song. What song. The song from star wars. Which one is that? Doo doo doo dooooo do, doo doo doo dooooo do, doo doo doo, doooooo, do dum dum da da. This of course had everything to do with kitties!
