E's dance recital was last weekend. We were told to hang out after the recital for the awards ceremony. Ok. Didn't think a whole lot of it... E has loved dance this year and has worked real hard... perhaps she'd get "most improved" or something like that... to our surprise... E received "Dancer of the Year" by her dance instructor....
So nice!
E's instructor, Abbie, said a few words that she had typed up... made me cry... "...My favorite thing abut this girl is her sweet, loving spirit. At some point during every class she runs up to me, gives me a big hug and says, 'Miss Abbie, when I grow up I want to be a dance teacher just like you!' It's moments like this that remind me of why I do this. She inspires me to be a better teacher and a better role model for all my students. Not only do I absolutely love this girl, but my life has been blessed just for knowing her. I am truly honored to have E as my dancer of the year..."
Such a sweet moment for our family. E went up on stage got her trophy and gave Abbie a BIG hug.
Sweet moment.

Congratulations Emma! You are one of the sweetest little girls we know too. You look so pretty in your dance costume. Love the nail polish too. It's very cute to do it like that. We know you make your parents so proud. We'll have to come over some time to see your trophy.
