Family Dance
It was family dance at Haley’s school tonight. So as soon as I got home from work it was time to go. We decided it would be too much to take Isaac with us so Mel stayed home with him and I took the girls. We had fun. They served the Varsity for dinner. If you’re from GA you know what the Varsity is. If you don’t live in GA the Varsity is basically your original fast food grease pit – they sell burgers, hot dogs, fries and ring. They also sell fried pies and an orange sherbet type slush. They are famous here in GA and if you eat that type of food you have to try it when you come to town.
The dance it self was fun until Abby decided it was too loud for her and wanted to leave. Haley showed some remarkable maturity and asked what we should do. A family friend was there and I asked her to watch Haley while I took Abby out. This doesn’t sound like much and for most kids it probably isn’t but Haley is always a bit concerned about those types of situations since she never knows who might bump into her and knock her over. She often would choose to stay with me instead of with her friends just so she doesn’t have to take that risk. Today she didn’t even think about it. She encouraged me to take Abby out and re-assured me that she would be okay. It made me happy to know she’s got it going on.
