Warm Fuzzy moments

I coached a dancer over the last 2 months and helped her prepare for her very first solo performance.  She is a beautiful older lady with amazing drive and passion.  She drove over an hour ever week to meet with me.  I created a veil performance for her and she practiced every moment she could get.  Her big debut was last weekend.  I was unable to attend because of a prior commitment. But I gave her all the good advice I had.  Don't practice the day of your performance, dance like nobodys watching, invite the audience into your dance.. and so much more (I'm full of good wisdom!)  She was so nervous, but I had faith in her.  This is the email she sent me yesterday:

Actual Conversations

(I put rocks in the dishwasher)

Bill: How come you washed rocks?
Me: Cause they were dirty.
Bill: I'm sorry. I should never question you again.
