Tabitha is so excited because she found out she would be in her ballet studio's production of "The Nutcracker". We didn't think she would be able to since the rehearsals and one of the performances was on Sunday. So I asked the owner if there was anyway she could be in it without participating on Sundays and she said no. Tabitha was heartbroken, crying all the way home. One hour later the studio's secretary called and said that Miss Maris (the owner) had arranged the rehearsal studio for one of the casts so that Tabitha would be able go without having to practice or perform on Sundays. I was so grateful for this wonderful teaching opportunity to be able to say "Tabitha you see Heavenly Father blessed you for being obedient".

That's the way to stick to your guns guys. This couldn't have worked out better had you planned it. Great lesson on obedience.
I'll be waiting on all the "Tabithina the ballarina" footage.
That's awesome! I'm so glad it worked out!
This is a story right out of the Friend -- really -- you should have Tabitha send it in. And tell her I said congratulations I think it is awesome that she gets to participate and awesome that you are such a good example of great parenting!
we are soooo excited for you tabitha!
I agree with Heidi, you should write in to The Friend. That is a great example of obedience and what a wonderful teaching moment and testimony builder for Tabitha. I can't imagine what Olivia would have done if I had to tell her she couldn't be in something like that. It would be such DRAMA! Good job Tabitha! Can't wait to see the photos and hear how it goes. When is it?
Definitely a "Friend" story. Nice to hear those things happening to people I know.
What a pretty dancer she is.
