zippa dee do da

Emma's dance recital, while it had it's downfalls (ie. starting at 5:40pm instead of 4:00pm, bad sound, "those" parents etc.) it was well worth the wait to see Emma dance her feathered little toochie off. She was definately someone to be proud of...we arrived to find out that Emma was recieving an award. Inspiration Academy of The Perfomings Arts Rising Star Award!!! I was super proud...don't get me wrong..I'm well aware she's only 3...and that each separate class gave out this award..but I still had my moment..thinking back to her first days when she'd get kicked outta class for not listening..or would come home without a sticker for leading the class on a run around instead of doing her dance. She now strives every week to listen and earn her sticker..she loves Miss Kim...and while the negatives were leading us to reconsider her enrollment..that little award just saved them from losing our tuition. We'll keep her in. The look on her face when she came running off stage yelling "I got a trophy Mama" was well worth the blood sweat and tears that she's (and us) put into it. It was a nice evening.

I'm trying to post the small snippit of a video I took while in the theatre...I couldn't take the whole thing, we really weren't suppose to take video of it, but I wasn't about to pay $40 for a DVD copy of the recital I already had to pay $10/per person to see.

Emma is the furthest little one on the left. Shaking her feather bum!! GOOO EMMA!!! I'm a proud Mama tonight!!

Oh my goodness! That little video is SO cute!!! Where is she in dance? I want to put Karleigh (and Shea if she is old enough) into dance along with a friend of mine's daughter. We just haven't gotten around to looking yet. :) What a cutie pie you have!

What a cutie pie!!! Ooooh - I wish I'd sent flowers! I love her wiggle :) She's a good little dancer, but that snippet was SHORT. The parents should've gotten together, bought one DVD, then burned the sucker for everyone else! Haha! Stick it to the man!!! Give her hugs and tell her Ms. Lori LOVES her. And Christy, I MISS YOU!!! How's AJ?
