The musical, ‘Footloose,’ had been taking place since Thursday. My wife and daughter had been involved for the past three weeks and my son, Oliver, kept asking…and begging…and pleading to see the show. (1) Despite my note, “But, Ollie, they’re not in the show; they’re stagehand,” he still wanted to go. Sunday (3) then arrived and Ollie says to me, “Can we please go to the show?” “Yes, sweet boy,” I replied, coming to the realization that he didn’t necessarily need (4) too see his mom and sister. (2) He just wanted to exist in the same space and time - kind of cute, actually.
