Special Smile

For several weeks now, I've been working on a Disney book. Well, it is finished and now I am back to  where I left off with the regular family book; which I need to have finished before May. Actually, that should be no problem, but one never really knows what time will bring.

This is a picture of Mason on November 11 of last year, when his braces were removed. Glorious day. It is a special smile when those bands come off (after what seems like years) that have restricted one's life.  And Mason looks pretty cool! 

Since then he was drafted to sing in a school program. However, the teacher just up and 'married' and moved out of state, leaving their school without a choir director and thus no one to organize the program...so it, with all the other vocal activities, has been cancelled. 

The school has been trying to find a replacement, but hasn't come up with one...Now I find that a little disheartening that they can't find someone in Nashville to do that, since it is quite the center of music. What is up??? If they can not find ANYONE who is qualified, could they not let someone fill in who does not have the right degree? I'm struggling to understand.  After all, this is a school of the arts! Mason is at the school...just because of his voice. And now he may as well be anywhere else.

Questions. We will always have questions without answers. But life goes on and we adjust. At least we had better adjust or life will be a very bitter place.

We must not succumb to being snowflakes!  We will make the best of what is handed us!
