Thinking Outside the Box!

So today we didn't receive the news we were hoping for about the callback yesterday...Unfortunately, that isn't a good sign. It isn't a definite, but I am almost certain that if it is taping on Sunday or Monday, that with a wardrobe fitting in there somewhere, if they had chosen him, we probably would have heard something today on the commercial...Oh well, I suppose that just means that there is something bigger and better on its way for Keeton! So today was pretty mild as well, we did some schoolwork and Keeton swam. Thank God for heated pools!! It's only in the 60's here all week but I don't think that child would stay out of the pool at any temperature!! Later in the afternoon, he had his Thursday night class with Patrick Malone down in North Hollywood. Patrick has truly started to bring out another actor in Keeton...He really thinks "outside the box" now when we are working on scripts. He will actually use more of the floor and use a chair in the room and stay focused in on his character or characters if he is working with someone instead of shifting his eyes around the room. WOW! What a difference a little training by a professional can make. He has brought up things that we have just never thought about before. Keeton is truly evolving and I am more proud of him each day! Keeton does private lessons with Patrick if he has something big come up or sometimes for just a little polishing...it is so worth it to see the changes in him! He will even bring me in towards the end of the session as a "producer" to distract Keeton to see if he will stay focused and in character with the person who is reading with him. I am excited to see what else he brings out of him before we leave! One more day until the weekend...fingers and toes are crossed! XOXOXOXO
