Hey guys. :) You all made this blogging thing look so much fun I decided to join myself...that way beth and Jen don't get tooo close without me. ;) lol just kiddin..kinda.
Anyhow...for my first post Im just gonna tell about the fascinating title of my dear blog. "Bettina the Ballerina", just saying the name makes me wanna get up and dance...but my fellow coworkers at touchtons may find that a little strange...If you've never heard the story of Bettina, I assure you, you are missing out on an amazing life lesson...without this book my childhood would not have been the same.
I remember requesting to my lovely older sisters and mother that this book be read to be on a daily basis...the story is about a very clumsy young girl who dreams of being a ballet dancer...but of course as the clumsiest in her class, the teacher chooses another student to dance the main part in their big recital...well when the dancer comes down with the chicken pox, guess what studious dancer gets the part? Thats right! Bettina!! :)
So what lessons do we learn from Bettina? That being clumsy doesnt stop you from acheiving your dreams...and when you have the chicken pox and a big recital is coming up..you ALWAYS rub up against the better dancer ;)
