The Joys of ZTA Motherhood!

Life as a Mother is always so interesting. It seems that one of my 'ZTA daughters' needs me in a way that even astounded me!!! Kelsey is a member of the UGA Dance Dawgs - a highly competitive dance position - that performs at all UGA men's and women's basketball games. It seems that they annually have a Mother-Daughter dance event at halftime of a game. Her biological Mom has refused to even discuss participating so the job/opportunity/deed has been turned over to me.
Here's precious Kelsey in the long, dark hair on the right!

I have had Dance Dawg practice tonight to learn TWO routines for the halftime entertainment and I am EXHAUSTED!!!!!!! But I am happy to report that I have gotten both routines down - not the 'attitude' yet - but the steps. The first is a oldie 50's number about doing the swim; the second is a hip-hop number that I am TRYING my best to master.

Kelsey says that I am fabulous and that I have learned so much this first practice. Of course . . . what could she say . . . . I am subbing as her Mom!

More to come. GO DAWGS!
