Dance & Piano Recital

Janine had her first Dance Recital this month and Stefan had his first Piano Recital this month! Quite the month for our children to be doing things for the first time. First Janine was so excited for her recital. Stephanie and Janine pulled up the routine that her teacher posted online and practiced the dance together to help her remember it better. Eric and Stephanie weren't sure how she would do performing in front of a lot of people, but when that music came on she was one of the only girls doing the right moves at the right time. She did great! Janine wanted to stay the whole time and watch the other dancers. As the other groups performed Janine would lean over to Stephanie and say, "look mom they are doing mot bots." or, "looks mom I can do leaps too!" Janine takes dance very seriously. After her performance she did ask her mom when she could start tumbling. That made stephanie happy! so next month Janine will start tumbling. We only live 10 minutes from where Janine performed and she was dead asleep when we got home. we would have let her sleep in her costume if it wasn't so scratchy and itchy. She did great.



Stefan also had his first Piano Recital this month. It was the weekend after Janine's performance. He wasn't nervous at all. He played all of his songs very well. He did a great job. Stefan has a natural talent for the piano. We hope he will always love the piano and work hard to become as good as his Grandpa Allan. There is another little girl at the recital with Stefan. She is our neighbor so it was nice that the two of them knew each other. Stefan and Janine both want to learn to play the guitar, but first they have to learn the piano and then they can learn other instruments. by the time Uncle Sean gets home from his mission Stefan might be ready for lessons. We know Stephanie will be! If she doesn't break down and by a guitar first.
