Dancing Girls


December brings a time when we go to see our children in their performances whether it be a school play, concert or recital. This month we went to see Emma in her first dance recital and Shantel in her annual Christmas recital. It was fun to watch them both. Emma fist dance was a tap routine to a song called "Little White Duck". There were technical difficulties with the music. The curtain opened, the music started and about 12 little preschoolers started their first dance on the stage and then the music stopped. They started the music up again and once again the little dancers started the dance to only have the music stop again. The curtain closed and they walked the little dancers off the stage. We could see Emma's feet and at first she didn't move, it was as if she was saying, "I came here to dance and dance I will." Well after the intermission, they had fixed the glitch and the little girls did their dance. Emma was so proud of her flowers. When she got home she asked her mom for a vase and then put 'her roses' in her bedroom. The following week we went to Shantel's annual dance performance. It's always so fun to watch Shantel dance as she has such enthusiasm for dancing and always has one of the biggest smiles. Her group did a fantastic job and she was also pleased with her flowers.
