sweet 16

sydney's birthday cake

About a week ago, Sydney turned 16. Robin and I were among the first to wish her a very happy birthday. Robin made her a cake and placed a call to to wish her a happy birthday at the stroke of 12, just to throw her off. Then we drove over and surprised her with some berry covered cake. Yes, we are all night owls.

Sydney, her mom, Nancy, and Robin

This is our friend, Nancy, aka Syd’s mom, Robin, and Syd with her new clickable Sharpies. Nancy and Ken own EurekanArt Studio and Shop, a lovely gallery which has been written up in American Style Magazine, and which offers my paintings and origami mobiles. Sydney is a wonderful girl to know. It’s been a real pleasure to be in her life and watch her grow into the young woman she is today. She is bright and insightful, funny and kind, and she has a lot of talent that she is just beginning to share with our community. Her recent paintings are quite pretty and she gave a good performance last week in MacBeth. Actually, she had several roles. Her performances were wonderful. She is a rare child actress-she does not over-emote.

MainStage presentation of MacBeth

These fabulous young people produced this show in an amazingly short period of time. They not only learned lines and blocking, but also built sets and made costume pieces and props. The castle was really cool but I especially liked the trees around the witches’ cauldron.
