Monkey in the Middle was in his class play, last week.
The theme was “Heroes” and Monkey in the Middle played Neil Armstrong.
He did great.
He was so nervous, as he is about so very many things, but he made it through, remembered his lines, and did just fine.
At the end, the kids all came out in super hero capes with their initials, and they sang the song “It’s Not Easy to Be Me,” by Five for Fighting.
Some of the words were changed, but the message was the same.
For those of you unfamiliar with the song, the last line is, “It’s not easy to be me.”
Real Man and I both teared up at the line, because it’s not easy to be Monkey in the Middle.
But he’s working on it.
And we are so very, very proud of him.
