She did it!

Kim met one of her long time goals yesterday! I was driving back home with my two teenage sons when Jacob read a text that had come to my phone. (I love having extra eyes and ears in the car so I can still text, using them, while I drive) he read "I made theater ballet". I had to pull over because I got so emotional over it. I knew she had the audition, and had wondered and worried for her. Most of you know the tough road she's been on with her feet, plus her taking a year off ballet classes. Her attaining this goal is HUGE!! Theater ballet is BYUs best performing ballet company. There will be a few perks for her in being involved and she had her first practice this morning. Her first show is the second week in September. I think it is maybe homecoming spectacular, held in the Marriot Center. Kinda cool!!! I am so happy for her, because I know this makes her happy. We went out for subzero ice cream to celebrate. Only Jacob and I were able to meet her but all three of us totally celebrated!!Congratulations Kimmie girl!!
