                Yesterday was Zara's winter concert at the elementary school
                (pictures below). She was so very cute; singing, dancing and
                generally feeling awesome about herself. Performing has that
                effect. Alora and Brittan are both home now, so they were also
                able to join Cara and I for the performance. They giggled at
                all the kids dancing out of step, forgetting how recently that
                was them. This break they are applying for grad schools. It
                will be interesting to see where they end up next year, and
                what they'll be doing.
               
              
                Today also marked the release of the highly anticipated new
                Star Wars film.
