(written by Daddy) Tonight was Alaina's first Father/Daughter dance at Freeman's Mill Elementary School. It was so much fun seeing her eyes light up. She really had a great time. I think we danced just about every song for 2 hours. She participated in the Hokie Pokie, Chicken Dance, Electric Slide, Macarena, and the Cha-Cha Slide. She loved watching the lights, balloons, decorations etc. She even saw her teacher, Ms. Conoley, there!
I have been to a lot of these dances as Sara was the first class of kindergarten students at FM. So I started going to these dances 9 years ago. Lucy said she remembered the first dance. I drove over to the elementary school in jeans and a nice shirt. When we arrived, I saw dads and girls getting out of limos and quickly headed home to change our clothes. So if Lucy's calculations are correct, I have 7 more years of Father/Daughter dances.
Last year was Lauren's last Father/Daughter Dance and it was quite a different experience. I basically got there and was stood up for the remainder of the night. She came and got me about 2 times to dance. I think one of those times, she walked away with her friends!
