that's what i'm talkin' about!

emmie loves to dance. but in past dance performances she was either:

stone-faced in concentration like this...
or looking at one of the other girls to know what to do next.

but not so anymore! at a recent performance, she stared straight at the audience with a smile pasted on her face the entire time...
this time, other girls were looking at her for what to do next...
go figure.

i loved it because it showed growth, maturing, and confidence. though her smile during the performance was not her most genuine, this one was...
she had a great time. and i think she was proud of herself. and that makes me smile!

I noticed that she was smiling. It makes ALL the difference.

I noticed her right away in her group. She was confident and her dancing skills were super.
I loved watching her performance that day. She is definitely maturing as a dancer. :)

confidence is one of my favorite looks on my kids. she is all sorts of graceful.
