A Dancer’s World

To everyone that taught me, inspired, or challenged me in the world of dance, Thank you!

My daughter is fully immersed in the dancer’s world. Her creativity shines through in her talent of dance.

Of course this causes me to ponder what I can do to make her dance life better. Adorable tote bags, custom costume bags, breathable shoe bags…all of it. So I’m creating patterns that make these items accessible to everyone. (I’m also noticing a theme-bags!)

When she went on pointe I knew the cost and intensity would increase. Her commitment would need to be there as well. Thankfully her passion has pushed her to reach her goals of becoming a ballerina on pointe. I still remember her eyes lighting up when the ballerinas danced across the floor. From the moment she saw them she dreamed of one day dancing on pointe. Now several years later, here we are. A supportive (if not exhausted mom of a dancer) and a girl living her dream on pointe.

So to all of you that have goals that seem unattainable, use her as your example. Push through the pain and the hard times. Make every day count towards that progress of becoming or doing what you want to do. It’s the choices we make everyday that dictate whether or not we reach our goals!

Much Love,

Amy Lou
