3-18-16 Early release from school, took a quick break, then ice skating lesson with Meegan. She practiced her routine for the exhibition for 45 minutes after the lesson. 

3-17-16 She tried on her new ice skating dress for the upcoming exhibition.
3-16-16 Added another ice skating lesson with Arlene after school. She's working on her spins.
3-8-16 While I was waiting for her to get out of school, received a call that she placed 2nd in the dance choreography division at the State level in the Art Reflections program for her "Beauty and the Beast" performance. Ice skating with Arlene after school.
2-27-16 Daddy too her to her group ice skating lesson. She didn't pass Free Skate 1 again because she needs to work on her spins. She took it a little better this time, but told me she would NEVER pass!
2-19-16 Coach Meegan changed her program slightly. Took out a couple of spins and now she is happy and confident!
2-18-16 First thing in the morning, she continues whining about her ice skating performance. I emailed her coach and we attempted to determine what her fear was. My perfectionist daughter is afraid she won't do well. She proceeded to have a meltdown after school as the whining continued. I asked her if she wanted to stop ice skating, she said, "no!" Continued to message her coach and her coach will talk to her tomorrow at her lesson. 
2-17-16 She has been whining about not wanting to perform in her ice skating exhibition next month because her coach has her performing to fast music, has 2 spins and salchow.
1-23-16 Daddy took her to her morning ice skating lesson since I had to work. She likes her male Free Skate instructor, Steve, this session.
1-1-16 She went ice skating with her friend, Rebecca from her old school. She's been asking to see her for weeks, so was very happy today.
12-22-15 Ice skating lesson with Coach Arlene. She's even happy when she falls!
12-14-15 Received an email from her new school that she will be advancing to the district level in the art reflections contest for her dance submission. She submitted her ice skating to Beauty in the Beast.
12-12-15 Daddy took her to her Free Skate 1 class. She didn't move up a level; 1st time since she started she has to take a class over. She was pretty upset...needs to work on her spins. 
12-11-15 Winter Solstice show after school. Her & Simone did great skating to "Suzy Snowflake".
12-4-15 Ice skating lesson after school with Simone. They are practicing for the Winter Solstice show and will be doing a routine to Suzy Snowflake. 
12-1-15 Ice skating with Coach Arlene after school. We arrive at the rink and realized we left her Zuca bag at home with her skates, so she had to borrow skates from the rink. She didn't skate well in borrowed old skates.
11-30-15 Entered her ice skating performance in the PTA Reflections Art contest at her new school this morning since today was their deadline.
