A few of our shorts ones were in a production of the
Wizard of Oz. Directed by our grown girl with the help
of her many home school mom friends. Of course it
was a delight to see the play. The short ones acting in it,
the many other children, the excitement, the thrill of
being in a play. All of it. Afterwards, the refreshment table
was loaded up with gluten free frosted and decorated heart
cookies. Chocolate frosted and decorated houses made to
look like the emerald city and cookies shaped and decorated
like poppies. Bugles, haystacks made out of chow mein noodles
and marshmallows, pinwheels and more. The snacks were so
creative and on theme. The Play Bill included an About the Actors page-
put together the evening before the play!
Sound affects were played on a keyboard. But it was an
‘actress” dressed in grey, wielding a hool a hoop, decorated
with grey strips of cloth whirling around the stage that made it
a whirlwind :
used in similes and metaphors to describe a very
energetic or tumultuous person or process.
A whirlwind of activity.
