I Could Write a Book

Tonight was my daugther’s 1st dance recital. She was in preschool ballet and they danced to "Ballerina Girl". I completely surprised myself when I started crying once she started dancing. At first she stood there ,but after 30 seconds or so she joined right in. I was so proud of her. Her teacher told me afterwards that she was most afraid for Juliana. She thought that Juliana would not go out onto the stage. Before they went on, supposedly, Juliana was clutching her hand telling her that she was scared. You never knew any of that on stage.

There were some beautiful dances tonight, some funky ones, and some girls that really knew what they were doing. It was inspiring to watch. I truly hope that J keeps up her "passion" for dance.

This morning was filled with my eldest’s son’s "athletic awards banquet". He was so proud of himself. I got the cutest picture of him with two of his buddies. Incidences like that really make it difficult for me to switch him from that school. wahh. Parenting is difficult.

I skipped working out today. There were not enough hours in the day to get it in. I also ate a piece of German chocolate cake tonight. Oh, ellipitical, oh elliptical. How I love thee, elliptical. (yeah right). I’ll be on that sucker tomorrow. lol. I must remember to take my ipod. I can not do cardio without music.

Oh, want to know something that I thought about tonight ? On this date exactly 3 years ago I first saw a picture of my daughter. Isn’t that something ? I remember opening up that email and seeing her face and thinking "that is my daughter" and tonight when she was out on that stage I was sitting there thinking "that is my daughter". You know I was crying.

Sleep well. Send some sandman sprinkles to my puppy. I need to sleep.
