Keep Dreaming... tell your kids

Wonderful things do happen to talented people in our country. In 7th grade, my daughter had a really cool substitute teacher. He was teaching while working on a play. Today, President Obama took his girls to see "Hamilton",
an innovative musical by Tony-winning Lin-Manuel Miranda. He is, certainly, a genius. He was DD's teacher. But if you have a child who needs to sing, paint, dance, it might happen.
I hope so.

I saw Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tony winning musical, "In The Heights". It was fabulous! I would love to get back to Broadway to see Hamilton.

How cool that he was your daughter's teacher. He is such a talented man.

Pretty cool! One of the biggest obstacles to succeeding in life is to be influenced and encouraged by the parents to follow your dreams and put your gifts to use. It works in the opposite too.
