My shining star!

So today I found out that Layla was performing at her school's graduation. Her class was going to do 3 dances and they needed her there. I had no idea that she was even doing anything for it but of course I had to see her dance. The whole school had to dress up as cowboys, well, Layla had no cowboy clothes so the best I could do was a plaid dress and pigtails. The performance was at Doral Resort in Cathedral City so I was in a major rush once I found out that we had to be there. We got there just on time and my mom and I dropped Layla off with her class and teacher where she immediately started dancing and playing with her friends. We went to sit down and realized there were no empty seats. The whole place was full! We ended up having to stand in the back and running up to the front to take pictures when Layla was up. I was a nervous wreck the whole time before Layla went on (and, of course, her class were the last ones to perform). I thought for sure once she saw me she would start crying and not do anything! Boy, was I wrong! She was so excited to see me and as soon as the music came on she went wild! She started singing and she knew all three dances so great and was the best one in her class (I'm not just saying that either, she really was)! She was the one that everyone else looked at when they couldn't remember the moves. I was so proud of her, she really surprised me and after this performance, she will be going to ballet in the fall. I am just so amazed and proud of her!
