Master of Disguise

Kali's most recent session of Discovery was called "Master of Disguise". She was taught how to apply face makeup. The students were shown how to do it once and then they had to apply the makeup on their own. The parent volunteers were only allowed to help a little bit. One week they did stage makeup, the next week they made themselves look old, then they did scars and bruising, and the last week they got to do their own creation. She wanted to do fangs, blood, and stitches, but I convinced her that a clown would be a better idea. She really did a good job. What a fun thing to learn how to do. Her scar and bruising looked so real that she faked out  Josh, my mom and Sadie. Sadie's reaction was my favorite. She immediately put her hand to her own forehead and it was as though she could feel Kali's pain. Even after we told Sadie it was fake, she was quiet and seemed uncomfortable. She doesn't like blood.
