FACING THE FACT....

On Saturday I will be attending Evelyn's Ballet Performance at Kingsberry Hall. Can I even begin to tell you the many performances I have attended there when my LuLu was doing her ballet training. It will be an emotional day for me to sit in the audience and have to face the fact that my beautiful ballerina will not be performing for me anymore. As I write this tears come to my eyes. I am not good at saying goobye to things I have loved so much. When Melissa turned eight years old, she started on pointe. She was placed in a gifted ballet class where the studio chose 11 girls that they felt had talent (and the body type) to train to someday be a professional. Melissa went to ballet class (at eight) everyday, including Saturdays. Sundays she had off. We did this routine for the next 10 years...! At 18 she audtioned for a professional company. She danced with Nevada Ballet Theatre for the next 7 years. I am so proud of her and ballet has become such an important part of my life... I love this photo of Melissa's beautiful legs and FEET....
I have loved watching her in EVERY PERFORMANCE... I will have a hard time holding back the tears when I see my little grandaughter Evelyn up there on the same stage my daughter started performing on. Good Luck Evelyn....
