She's Here!

Bag Lady May of 2012

A wonderful surprise Kaylan is here with me. I couldn't believe my eyes that day when she walked toward me while I stood on that stage at the end of the show. My granddaugther, Kaylan was there to see my show.
Every time I would do Bag Lady I thought about my granddaughter and I would wonder if she would like the show. I would wonder if she would think that I was a good actress. I wanted her to be the little girl dancer in the show. Seeing her that day walking towards me was a surprise of a life time. She was there on that stage in my arms.
To share my creativity with her is such a wonderful gift. I've dreamed of writing a book and doing a show and having my granddaughter see and experience them with me. I wanted us to have tea and cookies and I tell her my life stories.  I wanted her to see me as a wise old lady, a lady that she could come to for a hug and advice. I wanted her to see me as beautiful and smart. There she was seeing me sharing my story and all its uglyest and all it's pain. She heard my story and she saw my book she even held it in her hands. My joy was there for me that day she was in my arms. In between my tears when I was 14 years old bringing my only son into the world God knew that there would be my joy and she would know me. My book is for my granddaughter because I love her.
