Where was I? Oh yes, I was crying. So, right before Joey's dance, the Dad and Dolls Competition dance performed. If you have never seen this before, it is awesome! And, if we had a girl, Steve would be up there. If you asked him, he would say, "No way!", but I would make him! Anyway, I was crying. Yes, literally crying! I had so many emotions going through me while I watched those girls dance on stage with their dads. The dads, dressed in t-shirts and jeans, trying their best to dance with their daughters. I thought about my dad, and how fun it would have been to dance with him at some point during my 10 years of dance lessons. I thought about the fact that we have 3 boys, and Steve won't get to do a dance with anyone....but hey, they should have a moms and son dance class......I might have to bring that up!
Most of all, I just felt like we were missing out on something. Those dads and daughters were having an amazing experience, that my family will never have. It just makes me really sad. I know, I know...I am so grateful for everything God has given my family, but it still made me sad.
My sadness stems from so much more, which I will post about later. Sitting here writing about it, just makes me cry. It is hard to explain. On a happy note though, Joey did an awesome job! He told me he was a little stage fright, but when he got out there, he had a lot of fun. Two girls even gave him a high five!! He told me he wants to take dance again next year!
