          Finally, the night of the show arrived, and after work,
          I went and picked up all the boys. Alex had never met
          Landon or Max, but they all chatted and laughed the
          whole ride to Plymouth like they were old pals.
          Landon brought his phone to the concert and made a
          voice memo of the whole evening! The excitement of
          the boys that evening was evident to everyone in the
          room I'd say. Will took the stage and they could
          hardly contain themselves. Landon loudly clapped
          and cheered, exclaiming "that was epic" after each                                                                       PHOTO CREDIT: DENISE MACCAFERRI
          song, and Max and Alex sang along too, each of them
          dancing in their seats and in awe of Will's talent.
          Landon gave me several hugs during the show, being
          so grateful to be there. After the show, the kids
          talked to Will, Alex gave him the mala and explained
          the design to Will, and the kids picked out their
          hoodies (again a million thanks!) and got autographs
          and pictures. We thanked Will and I took the boys to
          eat at Yellow Deli. Walking back to the truck
          afterward, the kids saw Will in his van all packed and
          ready to go and chatted him up some more, lol. He
          was very kind and I was so grateful to be part of it,
          just watching them that night was such a gift, I'll
          never forget it.

          With love, light, and gratitude
