Emma's been taking dance for a couple of years now, but this year she wanted to try cheer. I still really wanted her in dance, but I've always made it my rule that I won't force my kids into [or out of] any extra-curricular activity. So if baby wants to cheer, baby gets to cheer.
So yea, after about a month, she wanted to quit. This is when I had to break my rule, because we had already committed to the Christmas concert. She wouldn't tell me why she wanted to quit, but after going into watch her class, I could see why... let's just say, the teacher needs sensitivity lessons. I told her she needed to finish the concert and then she didn't have to go back.
Ugh...the concert. It took 2 hours to drive there (the first huge snow storm of the year) and there were 31 dances. We were #29. Yup, good times.
The Entire Dance Company
Not to overshadow Emma's big day, but I had to mention this. There is this cute girl that Landon has been going to school with for the last three years and she also happens to cheer at Emma's studio. At the concert, she kept bringing her friends over to Landon and introduced him as her boyfriend. I can't believe my son has his first girlfriend.! He told me not to embarrass him about it, so of course I didn't...I simply asked her to pose with her future husband and sister-in-law for a picture ;)
