(The video above is strictly for your own enjoyment! Whenever I need to smile, I just watch this little clip. This is Emma performing her “signature move.” It will also reveal what goes on at my favorite studio when class is over…!)
Looking back at “My Grade 3 Contemplations,” I probably already have you on the edge of your seat with this title! So, without further ado, your details:
I was taking my daily vitamins yesterday when my mom told me, “There is a little conflict with The Nutcracker this year.“
“Why?” I asked quickly (most likely with a mouth-full of multivitamins).
My mom explained to me that my dad and brother will be deer hunting (with my grandfather) on the exact same week as performances. This would not only prevent them from seeing the show, but it would keep us separated on Thanksgiving– something that has never been before.
That said, I had to make a choice: Nutcracker or Thanksgiving with my family?
Being the family-girl that I am, I have chosen to “go to [my far-off vacationing spot], cook Thanksgiving dinner with Mom and see everyone safely off .”
I know that was a tough spot and a tough decision. I believe you made the right one, though! You're amazing!
You're amazing too, Mommy! Love!
