The Mysterious Case of the Missing Ring

When I say "missing," you all assume yet another one of your kids' shoes or swimsuits has disappeared into the black hole that is our household. Not this time. The Mysterious Case of the Missing Ring was Golda and Ruby's latest dramatic endeavor. It ran Thursday afternoon through Thursday night at a local community center, so it didn't break any records for longest run, but it was really cute. Golda was Miss Scarlett and Ruby was Julia. The twist at the end - I can tell you now that it's over - was that the "ring" was actually a cell phone. The cast members were very secretive about the ending. It was a mystery, after all. Thanks to the Jennie Dopps, the Nikki Taylors, the Aunt Tricias and the Coco and Bills of the world for supporting the girls. It's always uplifting to see those familiar faces in the audience. On a related note, thanks to Coco for lending us several flashlights as props. Some of the first ones are probably under Freestone's bed, but Coco never seems to run out of whatever it is we need at the time, no matter how many of them have already disappeared into...the black hole that is our household. Hey, there's an idea for a play. I'll have to get Golda and Ruby going on writing the script...
