Rohan, Vrinda, Logan and I went to see the Phineas and Ferb musical this morning. Stuart and I did not tell Logan about the show until last night and we did not hype it too much either. So this morning Logan did not seem too excited about it until we actually arrived at the theater. This was a nice size theater and we had relatively good seats (2nd row in the 2nd floor section). The boys sat down nicely and were curious about the show while waiting 20 minutes before it started. The musical was actually quite well done with good music. A few minutes into the show, there was a big boy (prob 12-13 yr old) came running to sit in the empty seat right in front of us. He had several stuffed Phineas and Ferb dolls with him; he was so excited swinging them in the air while watching the show and dancing in his chair. He was distracting but Logan and I were still able to see around him. However, Rohan was not able to see too well through the first section of people, so Vrinda suggested for us to move to the side balcony as it was mostly empty. The seats there were actually more comfortable and the viewing angle was still good, so all of us enjoyed the show until the intermission.
We had run into a family from Logan’s previous school earlier, and so they stopped by to say hi to us during the intermission and later decided to come sit with us too. All four boys had fun playing around the few empty rows around us during the break. When the show resumed, both Logan and Rohan focused on it again. The total show time was quite short, just a little over an hour, therefore, all of us were engaged and enjoyed the show the entire time. That family had purchased a souvenir gun for their boys that had interested both Rohan and Logan. Vrinda had given in and got one for Rohan too, and so of course, Logan really wanted one. I nicely declined Logan and fortunately he did not give me much fuss about it. During our walk back to the parking lot along with the crowds, out of the blue, Logan went from happy mood to grumpiness. He tried to let go of my hand while crossing the street and stopped walking at times until we reached the car.
Logan’s attitude had definitely dampened my mood a bit, but we still enjoyed the show and the morning together.
