Journaling about my kids (plural- wow!) for me; updates on our life for our wide circle of loved ones is for, well, our loved ones; sharing about life with a spunky toddler and the emotional highs and lows of having a wonderful baby with Down Syndrome is for anyone who might be on a similar journey.

Mambo Italiano

She's a dancer! After only four weeks of ballet Lupe got to perform on stage! I'm so proud of her.  And I'm excited to see how far this goes.  In the past I've let Lupe "dabble" in things.  She's done ballet before, soccer, gymnastics, etc, but then I let her stop if she's not so into it.  But at 7 years old I think it's time to stick with something for a while and have the opportunity to see that hard work really does pay off, that time and practice really do bring improvement.
So it's plies for the next year!

Backstage door.  Like a real performer!  She cried when I dropped her off for the rehearsal the morning of the show- because she had to be led back by a teacher- no parents allowed.  But she walked out an hour and a half later smiling!
