Today is Sophie's talent show. She just finished her 1 p.m. performance, and I am on the laptop while she's talking with her friends, waiting for the finale (all the kids go back out to the stage for the finale). She has one more show at 4:30, which is when all the family is coming to see her. We have 17 people! And that doesn't include Mark, who is chaperoning her during the 2nd performance.
She aced her song. She sang Starry Starry Night. She was perfect.
I didn't expect my Dad to still be with us now. I didn't think he'd get to see her sing. But he will.
He's coming at 4:30. My mom & her husband are bringing him. Amazing how life works out.
There won't be a dry eye in row F, section B, around 4:40 p.m. today.

In body issue news. I am still weighing in between 151 - 152. I had to buy new jeans yesterday because my 12s were too big & my Old Navy 8s fit but are too low waisted now (my belly is more poochy because my muscles are weaker. I got at 2 pairs of size 8s and 1 pair of 10s. That made me feel good. Did 35 minutes on the treadmill this morning, but that's the first exercise I've had in 2 weeks. At least it's a start.
If you're snowed in-- take comfort in the fact that March is not far away. And hang in there!

Sounds like the makings of a wonderful & enduring memory for your family.
Glad you're holding steady--hope things continue to go well in that regard!
Enjoyed your blog. Hope the show was a big success!
I really identified with the body part of your post. I just broke 150 and an thrilled! You'll be there shortly. Isn't it wonderful?
glad your weight is staying on the low end even if you don't have the tone you once had. It is easier carrying around less. So happy for the talent show and your Dad being there!! Thanks for posting and hang in there!!
It makes me happy to hear that your dad was able to see Sophie's performance. We lost my dad this past July and he was someone that went to EVERYTHING we did and his grandkids did. Hope you took pictures of him at the event. They will be priceless oneday!
Hope the show was a big success!
