| We have parent's week several times a year when we get to see the dances. It was fun. Surprised at how much these girls have learned in such a short time. Cute dances. Also got to see Emily's solo (not quite finished, needs about two more 8 counts) and it's going to be really pretty. Was neat to hear her using ballet speak (fondu is not melted chocolate for dipping fruit-I didn't know that). |

lol @ fondu!
(When I was young and danced, I always thought pas de bourre was "potty" bourre. That may explain why I was never that good.  ) |

| Well, fondu can be that as well, but the ballet term uses it and that is exactly the quality the movement should have. |

| I always enjoy getting to watch when the proviledge is occasionally offered even though sometimes I am the only parent there, now that she is older. Can't help it - she is still my baby! |
