Isn't it nice to find something that you love so much that little else matters? I hope ballet pays better than it used to. My cousin used to dance with a major ballet company. She was in Russia with the company for some performances. They're all in this dumpy hotel, the food is terrible, there's all this back-biting going on for who gets to be top dog, and the pay is less than 10k per year! She made a collect call home and was on the next flight out. She had had enough. They ground her down to the point where she didn't care if she ever danced again. So now she's a trauma surgeon. (That branch of the family contains a bunch of over-achievers). Your niece is beautiful. I hope the politics of dance never manage to overcome her love of it. Barbara Dream Master

LOL! so does Ashley!

Sounds like it is already in lights in some contexts.
She does look like she was born to do what she does. Being able to do what you were born to do is an unparalleled blessing, IMO.
