Our Tiny Dancer

I am feeling a little nostalgic today for many reasons, but mostly because Mia had her first dance recital on Friday.  I know that as mothers we celebrate firsts, no matter how little or big.  But for me, this "first" for Mia has really tugged on my heart-strings.  Here is a little girl who we thought may never walk, who struggled to use her legs through intensive physical therapy, and still battles with daily balance issues, dancing.  Yes, dancing!  And not just dancing, tap dancing.  And not just tap dancing, but tap dancing to Elton John.  Be still my heart.

Mia's dance teacher, Mrs. April.


Hold me closer, Tiny Dancer!

    Hi Cheryl - first of all I want you to know how much I enjoy keeping up with your awesome family via your blog! I can't believe how your girls have grown. You definitely have a full, rich life!
    Brian Zurawski asked me if I could get your mailing and email address for 401K purposes. He said you are still in the SRG 401K system and everything they've sent you has been returned. If you could email them to me that would be great!
    Take care, and keep blogging!!
    Bonnie
