Don bought Madeline and I tickets for Mary Poppins at the Kennedy Center and we went out on a girls-only adventure.
It was magical- for both of us
Here she is arriving at the Kennedy Center's Millenium stage (they do free performances at 6pm before the mainstage- hence the rockin music pre-poppins)
and since my good friend Kiara is in the Broadway National Tour, we got to go backstage and try on costumes and stand on the set.
Ok so madeline did not get home till 11:15pm (on a no-nap day of course) but it was totally worth it to see her face light up the instant we arrived at the theatre.
When the lights went down and curtain opened, she already started applauding.
Amazing.
Thank you Don and Kiara for making this day spectacular. Just what we needed this month

Kiara, you are the best! I cried so many times watching you perform, knowing you are living your dreams. it is incredible. you are so talented! an inspiration ;)
