Landen is on the Dana’s School of Dance drill team this year.  She goes to classes 3 nights a week (totally about 6 hours).  She is committed and loves it.  This past Saturday was their first competition as a team.  She was nervous, anxious and excited.  But mostly she was brave, bold and confident.  She danced beautifully and I am so proud of her!  I am proud of her attitude, her honesty, her determination and her shear commitment to this group and this process.  She said she loved performing (especially the applause) but not the awards ceremony.  Of course, I loved that statement even more.

I am thankful we have a found a dance studio that fits her personality.  It is serious but not too serious.  And it picks age appropriate songs, dance moves and outfits.

Next year she wants to do a solo.  I love watching her spread her wings.  Fly, baby, fly!
