Some days are easier than others. This one was particularly challenging in many, many, oh so many ways. BUT...I knew I had a little something to brighten my day waiting for me. Emily and I were having GIRL TIME and tonight we did it up right with some Dance on Broadway for the Wii. The timing was perfect since just mere weeks ago we attended a local theater's production of Broadway songs complete with dance numbers. When we saw the list on the back of the box we knew this would be a fun new way to blow off some steam, have some giggles and hey, if I burn a few calories it's a win, win, win.
So we came out of the gate with All That Jazz which led to Roxie and Cabaret. We slipped in some Good Morning, Baltimore, Let the Sunshine In and Fame. We did a cool down with My Favorite Things and ended on the quick paced and crazy, Time Warp. We still have many left to check out and lots and lots of practice before our big recital. Tickets will be expensive!
The best part of it all was how truly excited my 9 year old daughter was to have "girl time". I do remember some squealing as she bounced about saying, "Girl time!!!!" over and over. One of her little classmates even called and she cut her off about 10 minutes in to say she had to go. (So we could continue our dance-a-thon).
It seems like just yesterday I was dancing around singing "My Favorite Things" to soothe a tired baby. Now we were dancing to it together and she didn't realize it but she was soothing a tired mama.
