So the first performance of our recital is over… and it was FANTASTIC!! Here’s a shot of me and some of my girls:

The costume on the left is what they wear for Jazz (one of my classes).

Here’s a shot of Madd and me after the show:

Everyone worked really hard to make this a fabulous show - and all that hard work really paid off… even when things didn’t seem to be going to plan… or when the path ahead seemed rough - we forged ahead.

And the result was wonderful.

How often do you feel frustrated, or like things aren’t going to plan? When that happens, what do you do? Do you forge ahead, knowing that things will turn out beautifully - or do you stop everything figuring it’s just too hard to move forward?

There are times when I’m in the middle of a challenge and it feels like things will never get better. But when I come through the challenge and look back, the challenge really served to teach me something.

We’ve got our last performance tonight - and tomorrow -we’re resting! But after we’re rested, I’ll definitely be reflecting on the challenges I’ve had this week - and this year so far - and thinking about what they’ve taught me. And maybe next time I face a challenge, I’ll be a little calmer knowing it’ll turn out beautifully
