A commercial came on for Houston Ballet's The Nutcracker. Ally dropped the dominoes she was playing with and started dancing. We twirl a lot in this house. It made me smile. That big goofy smile that you can't wipe off your face.
I started dancing when I was 3 and continued through college. I miss it terribly. Every.Single.Day. I was really good too. I even thought about skipping school and becoming a professional ballerina. I would've loved it! I didn't though. It got me to thinking about the Butterfly Effect. The theory that something as small as the flap of a butterfly's wings can change the course of everything. I love my life right now. If there was some way I could go back in time, dance, and end up in this exact spot I would in a heartbeat.
Hmmm...what could've been.
