Starring...


It is that time of year where only one thing could make Josh choose to spend and entire weekend with hair, make-up, body and hair glitter, sparkles of every sort, giggling girls, and lot of dancing...Mia's Dance Recital.
It's hard to believe that she has been dancing for almost 6 years, gone are the days of leaving at intermission, because this year she had 6 dances...so an entire Saturday, one Dress Rehearsal, hair and makeup, 4 costume changes, only 1 hair style thanks to her short cut, 6 dances, about 500 pictures, and one very tired mom from helping with those costume changes we were left with one very beautiful and happy little girl.
Her Teacher confided in me that she tries not to play favorites with her students, but some how Mia has danced her way into a very special place in her heart and had secretly become her all time favorite student. She said that she has never seen Mia roll her eyes or grumble or whine when she is asked to do something...she always does it cheerfully and is a pleasure to have around...and I have to say in a completely biased way...I agree. Mia is one of the greatest kids in the history of kids
