Julie had to drag Olivia into the auditorium kicking and screaming (I was the "driver"). Once inside, Julie and Olivia bumped into Eva and Carolina, our friends from Rishikesh. Olivia looks up to Carolina, and so together with Carolina, and the application of mass amounts of make-up, Olivia struck up the courage to dance across the stage.
We filmed the recital, so if we can figure it we'll post some footage here. Olivia was brilliant, and that's just not a father's exaggeration. Her teacher and on-lookers have said "Olivia is frickin' amazing and will someday be THE Prima Ballerina!" (In so many words) Seriously, she was awesome and she danced with the biggest smile on her face. Olivia danced so well that Eli actually sat still to watch his big sister...that says quite alot. Eli is 3 years-old...he sits still for no one! I told Julie that, so long as Olivia wants to continue with ballet, then she'll have the "funding" to do so. Translation: I may be asking for sizeable loans from friends/family in the near future (kidding).
