Stella had been pretty dead set against dance lessons until the recital. But soon after Marni's recital, Stella announced that she wanted to dance again.
So be it.
Flash forward a year and Stella is performing right along side of Marni in the 2013 Creative Arts Studio "Color Me CAS Spring Showcase".
The girls performed together in a tap routine, and Marni danced with her class in a hip-hop routine.
Right up to the last minute I thought there was no better than a 50/50 chance that Stella would make it onto the stage. She can get nervous sometimes. But old pro Marni kept her sister calm and Stella did a fantastic job! (So did Marni.)
Later in the performance Marni did another great job in her hip-hop routine.
And then Marni announced that she was hanging up her tap and hip-hop shoes in order to concentrate on ballet next year.
I'm sure that wherever Marni goes, Stella will soon follow.
