Berta the Dancing Clown

I had a really fun time today! A friend of mine asked me if I would teach a song and dance to a group of little girls for her daughter's birthday party. I have been so excited and we performed to "She's in Love" from Disney's "The Little Mermaid" the musical. All of the little girls dressed up as princesses and sang and danced their little hearts out. It was fun to see some faces that have not been to my class come and have a good time. At the end of the party we performed for the parents. They all had their cameras and video cameras and it donned on me what I must look like.....Berta the dancing clown. A full grown adult with a huge smile pasted on her face doing some quirky pose. These poor kids are going to look back on these pictures and wonder, who is that lady and why is she hanging out with a bunch of children, what a loser! No, I absolutely love what I do and I am so glad that I am having opportunities to do it so much. I really missed doing children's theatre after leaving Chewelah and Janet. It was such a great opportunity for me and I hope that I can continue on following slowly in her footsteps. I will post some pictures from today as soon as I get them.
