Turner's music and dance class came to a close yesterday. He and seven little girls danced their stuff to "Deck the Halls." The morning of the performance I was rushing him out of bed, into the bathroom, and into the shower. He was still half asleep, but he stopped me in the middle of the bathroom after I turned on his water. "Mom!" all sudden-like. "Yes." "Wait a second." I waited. "I need to busted out this move." He took his foot, does some forward and then backward motion that included a tap. He clapped. Then he looked at me and told me the official name of this move, which I don't remember. He took his socks off and got into the shower. "So is that one of the moves your making today in your performance?" "Oh I can't tell youuuuuu." He sing songed his words to me. They have been practicing for the performance since Halloween. We have not heard a SINGLE detail about it from Turner. He has been quite close-lipped. His "busted out" move was my first glimpse of what was to come.
The performance was great, of course. When it was Turner's time to step onto stage he leapt two-footed onto the stage, then laughed out loud as the audience took note.
Knee. Tap. Heal. Tap. Clap.
The dance team.
