Dancing Day


Bethany started taking jazz and ballet last fall and has loved it! Every Thursday she jumps out of the van and runs to class.  She has loved making new friends and wearing her cute leotards.  Bethany's first recital was on February 4th.  Her class danced to the song "Hey Baby".  She's been so excited I thought I needed to help her have reasonable expectations for her performance.  We talked about how performing in front of an audience takes practice and that the most important thing was to have fun.  I needn't have worried, Bethany was fantastic!  She was a confident and happy little dancer.  It was fun to watch her do something that brought her so much joy.  I was actually a bit surprised that she did so well because I have two left feet...  Bethany told me afterwards that her favorite part was wearing red lipstick and having curly hair.  I think I'm going to have to hide the lipstick!
