Tonight after a family dinner, my six year granddaughter asked if I would play the piano for her, so she could perform her ballet. We did three performances and an encore. So much fun!

 That put a great picture in my head  My nieces are balleters, too, and would dance at the drop of a hat. I bet your audience loved it - well, of course, if they asked for an encore. Cathy

Nothing like reading your post to put a giant smile on my face. What a great time you must have had, Carl! You know, those situations are really video-worthy....next time, maybe?

Such a great story, Carl. The simple thought of her asking you to accompany her while she dances is so very sweet ---- then, she asks you to serenade her? You must melt when she even looks at you - what a joy!
