Rachel Schoenecker Rachel Schoenecker as Cosette singing “In My Life” is giving me ALL the feels 🥹

From the butterflies of falling in love to the comedy of being a girl who’s been stuck in a convent her whole life and is suddenly discovering the world… Rachel captures every little bit of Cosette’s heart so beautifully 🤍

If the rain has you feeling a little gloomy, consider this your reminder that there’s still plenty of magic to be found

And if you need me, I’ll be over here listening to Rachel sing this on repeat ☔️
