Yesterday was Lucy's Tap and Talent Show. Every year, Lucy's tap dance teacher, Tyler, encourages her students to show off some of their other talents and take the spotlight on stage. My 5-year old and four of her other friends decided to show off their recently acquired skill, hula hooping! You wouldn't think it is "Talent Show" material, but alongside the line up of jump-roping, a recorder, violin, and karaoke-style songs, they got an equally enthusiastic round of applause from the audience, if not more because they were just so adorable!!
It just so happens that today's morning paper reported that today was the 50th Anniversary of the Hula Hoop, and that it has become one of the hottest selling toys in Japan this year too, with toy stores having a hard time keeping them in stock!
Again, Thanks to my daughter and the positive people who bless her social sphere, we had another wonderful day being doting parents!

Lucy and her friends had amazing "hoop" moves and wowed the audience, even bringing a few people to tears from being so cute yet so cool. The determination that Lucy showed was amazing from such a little girl.....she obviously gets it from her mother!
Lucy also did a great job tap dancing and remembering all the steps and even the sign language for the routine.
Well Done Lucy, I'm proud of you!!!
Michelle, I'm positive the show wouldn't have run as smoothly as it did if you hadn't been there rounding up the kids.............. Thankyou soooooooo much for all your help I couldn't of done it without you!!!
I owe you big time!!!

The pleasure was all mine, of course! I think the show will make my top ten for this year too! Definitely one of Lucy's highlights!
