All of the funny... None of the drama...

Gave DCDaughter tickets to @boniver in Nashville next summer for Christmas… Possibly the best dance-adjacent gift I’ve ever given… 🤔
Some of ya'll have an attic full of dusty plastic trophies & it shows...
No greater #prouddad moment than to hear L’il D’s coach talk about how hard she works in & outside of practice... Same as her big sister with her dance teachers... #proudparent
Shoutout to @NBCSongland & @RyanTedder for validating DCDaughter’s career path... Nothing easy about moving to LA to start your dance career & then have a world pandemic shut literally everything down. All you can do is stand your ground... #NoPlanB
Batting Gloves are the new Jazz Shoes in our house... Merry Christmas y’all!...
Watching a performance of The Nutcracker tonight... Not to see DCDaughter perform... But instead to see her littles perform... Big takeaway so far... I’d really like my own cape...
So honestly, the biggest difference between being a DanceCompDad & being a Softball Dad is that there’s SIGNIFICANTLY more available counter space in my hotel bathroom... #notevenkidding #L’ilD
That’s it folks... If they truly love it... And they truly work their butt off, undeterred by whatever life throws at them... They will make it at some level of dance that will make you proud!... Forget the competition results... This is all you need to know...
Factor #2... Does she bust her ass consistently in all things related to dance & life?... Does she face setbacks head on, regardless of the situation, & finds a way to overcome?...
Factor #1... Does she love it?... Beyond almost everything else? Does she willingly give up the things other kids her age enjoy to be in the studio? Ball games... Parties... Socials... Dating in general... Other endeavors like Cheerleading or Dance Teams...
So what’s the difference maker? How do I know if my dancer will be one of the ones to make it? Fortunately for you, I’m an engineer & I work a mean spreadsheet... So I know exactly what correlation variables define the make it or break it factor...
So why do I share all of this? Because you need to know that even if your daughter doesn’t have all the advantages along the way... Even if she doesn’t dance w/ a Major Studio... Even if she doesn’t win all the competitions... Even if she has major setbacks... IT AIN’T OVER!!!
