I have no idea how I found Shell and her blog, Things I Can't Say, but I've been reading along for years as she discusses her life raising three boys. I'm honored to be on her site guest posting today, as part of her "Things They Can't Say" series, with a story of how Hannah, and I, experienced the process of auditioning for the fifth grade play.
No, I didn't audition, but it was so incredibly difficult not to identify right along with everything Hannah was feeling. But then she surprised me by actually feeling something completely different than I did. It's pretty cool to have learned something from her, not for the first time of course. And I know I'll have lots more learning ahead.
So click on over to read all about it.
Oh, and she got the part. Expect an excess of Mom pride come December.
