I'm always proud of my girl and her accomplishments but last night the SO told me something that really warmed my heart. So for the Christmas performance the SO asked if dd14 would be the Sugar Plum fairy and dance with what she called "the itty bittys" (4-5 year olds). DD was honored to be asked as she wasn't asked to do those kind of things at her old studio. So she learned her solo piece of the dance separately and then joined the itty bittys for 1 rehearsal before the show. The SO introduced her as Ballerina Lucy. Last night the SO shared with me that 1 little girl keeps asking her during class "When is Ballerina Lucy coming to dance with us?" and that the girl's mother told her that the girl dances around the living room pretending to be Ballerina Lucy. It means so much to me that she can be an inspiration and a role model to a young dancer.

Thanks everyone! I am proud and I think Lucy was really touched. Because of her previous dance studio, she doesn't think much of herself. We are on the road to recovery!

That is indeed a sweet story! To me, this is one of the reasons that dance can be such an amazing experience for kids. How wonderful for both girls! Love it!!
