OK, I’m a doting grandfather and may be getting ahead of myself, but…
A couple of years ago, in grandfatherly fashion, I gushed with pride that our granddaughter Maddie (then 7 years old) debuted as a “Dancing Bee” in The Washington Ballet’s performance of the Nutcracker.
See A Star is Born! to trace Maddie’s journey from toddler dancer to dancing with The Washington Ballet.
============
Now, let’s fast forward to this year.
Maddie just celebrated her 10th birthday … and look at her now:
Again, it’s The Washington Ballet’s Christmas presentation of the Nutcracker.
Maddie was on stage for most of the first act … and even got to dance a duet with one of the show’s adult stars.
Wow.
What’s next, a role dancing as the Sugar Plum Fairy?
Maybe someday…
Viva la diva…
We’re proud of you, Maddie!
