You know how sometimes, your teenager does something that totally blows you away?

That IS neat, Julie! It's great when we see our kids take on something new and really love it. My DD just started winter color guard this year. It's something I never thought she'd be interested in. She has never been interested in dance or performing, and she isn't a "girly girl".....yet she has turned out to be quite good at it. They even gave her a little solo. When I first saw her, she was so beautiful and graceful that it brought tears to my eyes (OK, I get the tears every time!). It was like looking at her in a whole new way. Congrats to your DD for finding something she enjoys so much!

Julie that is so cool. I love to dance and when Dave and I go to a wedding we don't hardly leave the dance floor. I suffer for it later, but sometimes it is worth it.


Jaryd loves to dance, when my niece got married I couldn't believe how much he danced. There were a bunch of women, probably my age - 50's that just loved him and got out there and were having a ball dancing with him. He went to a couple of the school dances last year, but none of his friends were there and big sis didn't always want him hanging with her and her friends so he ended up not going any more. I hope he will start going again, since he knows a lot more kids now.


Isn't it great when we see our kids doing something like this that they really love to do and are good at it too.


Good for C, for getting involved in something new and different in a new and different place.

Sounds like C is enjoying things more than a month, or two ago. Isn't it wonderful to see those smiles on our kids' faces?

She danced in three-inch heels, yikes! I had a hard time just walking in my shoes with 2-inch heels when i wore them last week, after almost a year.

We keep telling Wes that he will be wildly popular with the ladies if he learned to dance well.

C did have something of a challenge finding her niche, but find it she did!
