I’ve written about my oldest daughter in the past, a lot. When it was time to pack her up and move her across the United States, I had a really hard time.

The leading up to the drop-off, the drop-off, and the few days after were incredibly hard for me. Although now, we have gotten into our rhythm and I feel great about her being away. She is pursuing her dreams and is already becoming successful in her own right.

She has been at a specialized dance school since September of last year. At this conservatory, they dance 5 days a week from 9 am — 6 pm and sometimes they have rehearsals on Saturdays. They are preparing for their upcoming show in May that we will fly out there for.
