AUGUST 2012 BAIRD BENEFIT CONCERT

AUGUST WAS A BIG MONTH FOR US CLASSES STARTED BACK UP AT THE STUDIO, DIXIE HIGH FOOTBALL SEASON, MY MAJOR STARTED PRE SCHOOL, YIPEE!!!

GREAT STORY: I WAS VERY HESITANT ON WHERE TO TAKE MAJOR FOR SCHOOL BECAUSE I HAVE THIS FEAR OF PEOPLE NOT BEING NICE TO MY BOYS AND BY BOYS NOT FEELING LOVED AND THEM BEING SAD WHEN THEIR MOMS NOT AROUND TO COMFORT THEM. (i know im crazy) SO MY SISTER JANETTE REFERED ME TO HER KIDS OLD PRE SCHOOL...WELL IT TOOK ME A WHILE..OK MONTHS TO CALL BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO FIND ONE ON MY OWN...SO WHEN NOTHING FELT RIGHT I JUST SAID "HECK WITH IT I'LL CALL" AND HERES THE LORD AGAIN....THE TEACHER TURNED OUT TO BE MY OLD YOUNG WOMAN'S LEADER WHO WAS SOOO GOOD TO ME WHEN I WAS IN YOUNG WOMANS AND HELPED ME GET MY PERSONAL PROGRESS AWARD. SO HE STARTED SCHOOL...BITTER SWEET...
WE ALSO, WERE PUTTING ON OUR 4TH KALAMITY BENEFIT CONCERT AND  5TH CONCERT FOR THE YEAR! WHEN YOU DANCE FOR THOSE GOING THROUGH REAL LIFE KALAMITYS LIFE IS FULL OF SURPRISES AND SERVICE!
THIS CONCERT WAS AMAZING AND MOST OF ALL THE SPIRIT FELT THERE WAS UNBELIEVABLE!! WE DANCED FOR A FAMILY WHOSE MOM WAS DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE 4 BREAST CANCER AND A DAD WHO WAS DIAGNOSED 2 WEEKS BEFORE THE CONCERT WITH SKIN CANCER.....AND THEY HAVE 5 KIDS. TALK ABOUT HAVING IT HARD, RIGHT?! THE SUPPORT OF THE COMMUNITY WAS AMAZING AND THE STRENGTH, SUPPORT AND PERFORMANCE FROM THE DANCERS WAS UNREAL!
