Just Dance

Two weekends ago we had the opportunity to watch Zoe perform her tap routine at the mall.  She was SO excited to be "on stage" at the food court.  Really, the best place to dance is around all the food. 

All her classmates were there, dressed and ready to perform.  I was a bit nervous about it because every other performance I got to see in the studio included Zoe running to me crying.  Her attitude was cheery and happy, so I felt we had a chance for success.


Loads of family came.  She had one of the biggest cheering sections that day, 12 of us total.  Her time came and I gave N the camera and found a lovely pillar to stand behind.  I peeked around to watch her.  She was focused on daddy, smiling, waving and eager.

She did it.  She actually made it through the whole routine without crying.  Actually she smiled for most of it and even enjoyed herself.

Of course the second she came off the "stage" she was ready for a cinnamon roll and some water because "that was a lot of work!" 

I'm so proud of our tapper.  She'll do great on the actual stage in June.
