| Walking up to the gym |
It was another good practice today up at the gym. Salem is getting a bit tire though, still not 100% over his cold, so I think it will be a day off tomorrow. He still has a rehearsal for his group contemporary dance tomorrow at his dance school, Kapiti Dance Centre, but that is in the afternoon and only for about half an hour.
We have been walking up to the gym and back while the weather has been nice, but cold, it's been a good way to warm up before practice and to blow the cobwebs out of our heads. Today because he was tired, we caught the bus home.
Salem has been very lucky to have been chosen to receive a Gold Heart Scholarship from Variety - The Children's Charity. This is going to be a big help and has meant that we could afford some private dance lessons so that Salem can do competitions now which he has wanted to do for a while. It will be interesting to see who they are going to get to mentor Salem. Can't wait.
