For quite awhile, Kara has LONGED to take a dance class. Last spring, some friends invited her to come to their recital. She and I were quite impressed, yet I was a bit teary as I watched her on the edge of her seat knowing it was something a bit beyond what the family budget could ever offer her. Well, thanks to the sweet ladies at the Academy of the Performing Arts, we were able to barter cleaning the studio every other week for two classes! SO EXCITING!! She chose to take tap and ballet and is a very quick learner. Simon had fun going to pick her out a dance outfit for her class while she was at school. He wrapped it and gave it to her because he "loved her". We have some sweet little and big gentlemen about our house! Her friend, Fiona, wanted to give her a "dance" bag, and it's nice that she's such a little peanut b/c her friend, Adiryn's outgrown tap shoes fit her :). Woohoo for sweet friends!
