"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Maddy’s Dance Performance

Maddy is such a beautiful dancer, she is so graceful and has wonderful posture and is more flexible than I could ever imagine being, she has always loved dancing. It has been so fun to watch her start dancing at two years old and become this beautiful dancer. I am so sad as I write this post because she has chosen to no longer dance. We have had some problems with dance this year and with the way Maddy was treated and that resulted in Maddy being very hurt and she now has a really bad outlook on dance and refuses to ever dance again. I am sad and at the same time realize that maybe this was best and maybe Heavenly Father has a much better plan for her.

oh I am SO sad to hear this also. I too gave up dance when I was a little older than Maddie. For different reasons. I now regret that decision SO much! I pray that this won't be the case for Maddie when she is older. Or that if she changes her mind one day, she will feel free to join up again. I am sure you have your own thoughts...but it troubles me to hear that she was treated badly. Some people are just horrible in the things to do and say to others. If only they knew the depths their actions cause. :(
