Steppin' Back Into The Studio

Tonight I had the chance to step back into the dance studio and sub 3 Ballet classes. Can I just say what a treat it was!

I haven't had the chance to teach in awhile. Having Cohen in October put me out for the 2011-2012 season but I was thrilled to have the opportunity to step back into the studio tonight.

Teaching tonight made me realize just how much I miss my work. Not that I want to be away from my children (because I love them) but it's a special time when I get to feel like me again. I get to put my years of training to good use and share something I love with little girls who love it too.

It's so amazing to see how students look up to you and listen to the corrections you give them. To see them try and succeed. To see them develop a love for something that I am so passionate about.

Of course I did come home to a crying baby- who simply refuses to take a bottle...sigh. But those 3 hours were just the pick me up I needed. We give up so much for our children that it's nice to have a little reminder of who you are and oddly enough for me going to work is where I am reminded of this the strongest!

Honestly I feel so blessed to have a job that doesn't feel like work!
Where do you find reminders of who you are?

Happy Leap Year!

Cheers- Jordan

Laugh Out Loud Wednesday

If this doesn't make you laugh I don't know what will!


Happy Wednesday!

Welcome!

Well it's official.

Welcome to my new brand new blog- A Little Less Drama.

You'll probably continue to see some changes here over the next few weeks (maybe even months) as I try to  make this blog exactly what I want it to be, but I've got to be honest I need to get this show on the road!

I'm super excited about creating a fun new blogging world, sharing my adventures, telling some stories, disclosing a little bit about who I am and how I have come to be that woman, and of course learning and growing with you- my readers. I'll be creating a weekly line up which will include but not be limited to:

Hot Mama Monday- We'll talk about how to be a hot mama (and this doesn't just mean how you look) and learn to take a little time for our selves.

Laugh Out Loud Wednesday- I'll share some wild and wacky story, picture or video with you. Hopefully resulting in a laugh or at the very least a smile to brighten your day :)

Share The Love Friday- I will attempt to share some tips on things I've learned over the years and I'll also be asking YOU to come on over and be a guest poster on my blog!

I'll also have monthly posts such as Blast From The Past (stories from my past) and Appreciate the Arts (sharing my love for dance.)

I hope you are as excited about this new venture as I am. Please spread the love and become a follower today. I want to hear from you and you and you too! And all those other bloggers out there.

I need you to help me have a little less drama in my life!

Jordan
