Today was Madelyn's first dance class of the new year! She takes lessons at Attitudes in Dance here in Venice under the artistic direction of Ms. Connee Winslow; under the instruction of Ms. Fran Fredrick who coincidentally owned and operated La Danse Academie in my home town of Joliet, Il. for 30 years. From age 5-16 I danced for MaryAnn Corcoran, Ms. Fran's competitor and friend. Last year when I began researching local dance studios I was thrilled to find out that Ms. Fran had retired here in Venice and taught ballet & tap at Attitudes! It really is a small world! Our first year was a lot of fun and with 1 year of lessons and 1 recital under our belt, Madelyn and I are ready to take on year 2!
Madelyn's dress requirements have changed. No more pink leotard and pink tights, she looks like a big girl wearing a brand new black leotard and pink tights!
I'm so glad that Maddy enjoys dance. Just like her Mommy!

Maddy will have to demonstrate some of her dance moves next week when Mom & Dad are babysitting the kids. I'd love to see her stuff!
