WICKED!!!



In Maine, which Sam and I still consider 'back home', the word wicked is an expression.  As in 'wicked cool' or 'wicked good' or, come to think of it, 'wicked' almost anything.  But here in Chicago, Wicked is the hottest Broadway play...notoriously hard to get tickets for and a real treat if you're even able to pay large amounts of money to go.   Well, my super smart and talented daughter just beat out several hundred if not thousands of kids in the state in an essay contest to win a pair of tickets to the show. Only one middle schooler was chosen and that was Sam!  The first of many accolades to come for her writing, I'm sure.  So if you happen to wonder what we're up to Thursday night, we'll be having some 'wicked' fun!
