Dance Showcase

Have I mentioned it's been a long pandemic? So long that we bit the bullet and put Rebekah in a class. Outside. Where the virus can get to her. But we weighed sanity with the possibility of exposure and it came out on top. 

I made the mistake of telling the ice skating coach that we were moving and I wanted to get in as many lessons as we possibly could. That was the last I was able to speak with her. I assume she didn't see Rebekah as worth her investment now that we were moving. 

So I spoke to a friend and we eventually got her into a tap class (half way through the class) with her buddy Adelaide. The teacher spoke about a low key showcase but I quickly warned her about Rebekah's over abundance of anxiety. The teacher assured me there was no pressure. 

But Rebekah was excited and determined. I credit the teacher, the size of the class, limited venue because of Covid, and her friend Adelaide. 

I still wasn't quite certain it would happen, but we got this far. 

 

I was very camera heavy. 

She was heading to sit with us but her teacher and crew got her up front. Go them. 

Such a brave cutie! 

Eventually it was time for the dance. 

I was still somewhat concerned....

But she did it! 

I think she did fantastic! Considering the other two girls had twice as long in the class, she kept up very well. So proud! And yes, I cried. 

Love this!
