Feeling Proud

Lulu, a freshman, is in Level 3 dance at school, which is typically a junior level. Tuesday she had a rough day and came home in tears. Wednesday she spoke to the teacher and told her she was new to the school and came from a non-competitive dance studio, but was committed to the class. She even told the instructor to "yell at me" if she got anything wrong. Wow. What an unscripted declaration of grit and dedication. It is honestly one of the proudest moments of my parenting career. Well done OJ!
