She thinks I just see her up there…
on stage, smiling, performing, living her dream 🤍

And I do. I am so proud.

But what she doesn’t see…
is what I see.

I see the little redheaded girl with wide eyes at ,
meeting Princess Anna for the very first time…
completely in awe. ✨

I see the dress-up days.
The living room performances.
The way she felt seen in a character who looked like her,
acted like her,
and made her believe she could be that girl too.

There is something so important about that…
seeing yourself in a story.

And now here she is…
standing on a real stage,
in her professional theater debut with ,
playing Young Anna in FROZEN.

She thinks I’m just watching the performance…
but I’m watching the full circle moment.

The little girl who once looked up and whispered,
“I want to be you someday…”

…is now the one another little girl will look up to. ❤️

And I can’t help but see every version of her at once.
