sleeping booty...

Hello, again! This is Caroline.

This blog is a combo of around three different topics.
I couldn't choose which one I wanted to share with you, so I'll share all of them.


My mom is starting an airbnb in our old house. This is the picture right before I happened to break the bone on the side of my foot. I was having a race with my friend and brother and I slipped on my Heely's and fell. The way I fell, I can't remember. But I do remember IT HURT.








 My parents took me to the urgent care and I got this scan; if you look where my orthopedic doctor marked the arrow, you can see a crack/fracture in my foot. My foot was and still kind of is now swollen. My foot was probably in tears by then.
 This is when I got home, excited about my new crutches. (BTW, NEVER like crutches. They REALLY hurt and annoy you.) I couldn't walk to the bathroom; I had to grab or have someone get my crutches. I got super annoyed. Boy! Glad I don't have to wear that bulky boot and especially use those crutches anymore.
 During my tragic experience with a fractured foot, my brother was having a happy first time losing a tooth. That kid can bring a twinge of happiness in sad times. He's the greatest.
 This is me and my little nurse brother trying to get into Coldstone Creamery. A lot of effort to get into an ice cream shop. (It was worth it, though) I couldn't walk on my foot so it was bounce after bounce on my left foot. Ugh.

And to make things harder, I had committed to the summer play at my school! We selected Sleeping Beauty, and I happened to get the role of Sleeping Beauty. I had a stand-in for the dance scenes, luckily. This is me in the Animal Scene and my friend Meliyah in the bunny costume behind me.



 Huge congrats to my friend Sophia who played the role of Maleficent. She was amazing. I mean, everyone did awesome in the play, but she stole the show.

I was in the scene where I got pricked by the spinning wheel and I fell on the bed, and when I fell, my parents saw my boot pop out from under my dress. We had a joke in our family that I was 'Sleeping Booty'. For little kiddos that think that's funny, keep on laughing! It is funny! But it's not the butt kind of booty. It's the boot kind of booty.





Our big finale was a huge hit. Our dancing and singing made it the star song. We all did amazing in my opinion. You must go see the plays at T.C. Miller. They are outstanding!










Meliyah is one of my best friends. She is so awesome and really nice. She played Queen Stephanie/bunny in Sleeping Beauty.

My family is the best. They are really supportive and will help me with my lines in the plays I participate in. I hope next year I get a lead role because playing a role at T.C. Miller is probably the greatest thing ever. Do you have a child who is in grades K-5? Sign them up for the lottery list or enroll them in the waiting list (as my parents like to call it). Thanks for listening to me!
