Post 89 - February 20

Dear Julie,

Today was your first dance competition! It's also Aubt Sara'a birthday! We called and talked to her, but spent most of our day surrounded by fake tans, glitter, and hairspray. Our dressing room was on the fourth floor, and any time you needed me, I had to run to the audience, or dads had to bring you upstairs. By the end of the day, we were completely exhausted.

I was so proud of you. You were the model behavior of how to act at a dance competition. You didn't cry or fuss. You watched the girls dance, and loved every minute of it. Dada was a trooper and kept you happy, and rested. He took you for a drive to take a nap, and would track me down when you needed to eat. We spent 15 hours at the competition, then drove home, and you did amazing thorough everything. We are so blessed to have you as our child.
